City-survival strategy set in a frozen world where oil has replaced steam as society's fuel. You lead a settlement through resource scarcity and factional politics, making decisions that pit practical survival against moral cost. The game centers on managing districts, balancing competing interest groups, and choosing which laws to enact when no option feels clean. Expect to weigh short-term needs against long-term consequences as different factions push conflicting agendas. The setting is post-apocalyptic ice, with your city's survival depending on how you handle both material shortages and social fractures. Characters represent broader groups rather than individuals. If you liked the first game's tension between progress and ethics, this expands the scale—more people, messier politics, harder calls.
