Colony Survival vs Frostpunk
Colony Survival
Colony Survival is a voxel-based town-building simulation game that emphasizes on ensuring the survival (and expansion) of your colony of people, be it by making sure they have enough food to not starve to death or by stationing enough archers around the parameter of your castle walls to repel zombies. Like Minecraft or any sandbox games, you are free to build any base you like (underground, in the sky, or a proper medieval castle with a moat and a drawbridge) as long as you've got the materials (a.k.a. blocks) to go with it and there are various crafting stations which you can build and then assign a worker to just so you can create better and more advanced items.Aside from its infinite, procedurally-generated world, the game also uses an advanced 3D dynamic pathfinding system, allowing you to funnel your people along a specific path simply by having the necessary designs. The same goes for the zombies which usually come out at night to besiege your castle and your sleeping populace. As long as the zombies can't get in and slaughter your people, you can keep expanding your population and your kingdom to whatever size you like!
Colony Survival can even be customized to whatever difficulty you like, depending on how well you think you can best the zombies. So, if you enjoy Minecraft-like games but you also happen to enjoy a "build your own maze", tower defense-like gameplay, then Colony Survival game is definitely for you!
Frostpunk
Frostpunk is the world's first society survival game set in a chilly post-apocalpytic setting. Developed by none other than the people behind the award-winning This War of Mine, the game puts you into the shoes of a ruler of the last surviving human civilization. It is now on your shoulders to help your people survive the terrible storm that's coming by enacting necessary (but likely unpopular) laws, deciding which refugees to accept and which to turn your back to, automating as much of your city's vital facilities as possible, ensuring that your city is well-heated, and hoarding as much resources as you can. In this game, every decision you make is impactful and will affect your chances of survival at the every end.Frostpunk is a game that takes resource management to a whole new level by letting you know upfront that you can't win or be the "good guy" all the time. Sacrifices will have to be made and your choices will determine what sort of leader you'll be.
