Set in an alternate reality in the year 1886, where Krakatoa and mount Tambora have errupted with the subsequent cloud of ash blocking out much of the sun and resulting in a new ice age, humanity desperately struggles to survive after global food crops are destroyed by rapidly plummeting temperatures. Whether you’re an enlightened ruler or an iron-fisted tyrant, you’ll discover that choices in this world aren’t as easy as they seem, and that holding power over people has a cost as heavy as the responsibility you feel in caring for them. As the leader of possibly the last civilised society on Earth, you’re going to build the city that your survivors live in, discover new technologies, explore frozen wastelands and most importantly, manage and rule society to prepare it for life in an unforgiving world. Offering players a complex, strategic challenge alongside a rich narrative featuring an alternative take on the 19th century industrial revolution, Frostpunk tells the story of how our planet mysteriously freezes, putting an end to civilization as we know it and forcing the human race to adapt to harsh conditions. ![]() Adapted for consoles with revised controls and adjusted mechanics, Frostpunk: Console Edition enables you to fully test your tactical prowess on the frozen wastelands. Presenting complex strategic gameplay, demanding challenges and a rich story, Frostpunk is extending its unmatched survival experience to consoles. If you want to harvest a pile quickly, you can staff people in both the gathering post and the pile, or build multiple gathering posts in range.Frostpunk is a society survival game where heat means life, and every decision comes at a price.Most gathering posts that are created to gather from the pre-existing piles should be dismantled once the piles run out. Due to the limited amount of resource piles, the gathering post's usefulness quickly disappears except for harvesting coal piles produced by a Coal Thumper.Research Gathering Post Insulation II (Technology): +1 heat level.Research Gathering Post Insulation (Technology): +1 heat level.Research Efficient Gathering (Technology): +15% work faster.Research Faster Gathering (Technology): +15% work faster.This gives the player very limited control as to which piles are gathered from. Each worker will be assigned to one resource pile, starting at the resource pile closest to the post and moving outward, and then repeating. ![]() Gathering posts handle multiple resource piles by assigning individual workers to each resource pile. The gathering post is also safer, as people working there will use the insulation of the gathering post instead of the pile they're harvesting. This is more efficient than harvesting the piles directly, as harvesting 3 resource piles at maximum efficiency would require a total of 45 people, while the gathering post only takes 10 and harvests faster. Place the gathering post next to resource piles (wood crates, coal pile, or steel wreckage) and staff it with people and they will gather from any piles within range. The Gathering Post is a rickety shack that allows you keep workers relatively warm while they are scavenging and salvaging resources from nearby Wood Crates, Coal Pile, Steel Wreckage, Destroyed Steam Core Transports, Wooden Ruins, or Steel Ruins. Gathering Post is available from the start, can be built from Resources tab.
