Frostpunk vs Oxygen Not Included
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.

Oxygen Not Included
Oxygen Not Included is one of the most highly anticipated new survival/base building game by Klei Entertainment, the very people behind the breakout indie title, Don't Starve. Set in a space-colony where oxygen itself is a limited commodity, Oxygen Not Included will put your management and planning skills to the test as you try your best to not only help your current colonist survive the next day but also to grow your colony into a bustling underground space colony.The game has a very in-depth base building system that may bring to mind a 2D version of SimCity. It also features realistic psychological effects (specifically, stress) of surviving, which may eventually lead to a breakdown, and naturally, you wouldn't want that. Aside from oxygen and the mental states of your people, you will also need to keep a variety of other factors well-regulated lest your colonists die from a necessity you've neglected. Best yet, like Don't Starve, each world you play in is procedurally generated, guaranteeing hours after hours of replayable fun!
In some way, Oxygen Not Included feels like a much more in-depth version of Fallout Shelter albeit with a different theme and Don't Starve's iconic art style. So, if you love Klei's games so far, you might want to check out Oxygen Not Included. However, bear in mind that the game is still a work in progress and if you have any suggestions, you can always send them some feedback.
