This DLC adds more depth (metaphorically and literally) to the game that is FortressCraft Evolved. It adds new machines, new concepts, more play time, and also new threats and other challenges. It is well worth the price, since the game already doesn't cost as much as others like it.. Yes, yes and yes. This is the big expansion I have been waiting for. It brings many interesting new machines to the game, aswell as requiring you to rethink some strategies.. This expension is vast, long, heavy and awesome.Changes some aspect of the game play. Exemple :- Base game : Like in many logistic games, you try to have a nice balance of efficiency, speed and room.- Frozen Factory : It's all about speed : you have the proper tools... but you will waste a lot of mats. You have to overlook this and build more, LARGER machines to extract more ores, faster.... design huge mazes of crazy roads to accelerate everything. Big, large, messy, with a lot of waste....... but here, what counts is the result. It's different.... but awesome once you fully embrace this idea.But as of right now, it still needs some slight balancing and has some minor issues... and 1 or 2 larger issues here and there.I fully trust the DEV for the heavier issues to be fixed very soon.. Having had a chance to play this expansion some here is the Official review. TL;DR Version: If you like Fortresscraft, This is more goodness and you will love this expansion. Complete Version:This expansion adds some specific buildings and challenges to the cold caverns layer. The main enemy is a device called cryoplasm which if you have ever played creeper world you will know what it is all about. There are many new buildings and you will find yourself enjoying and playing with most of them throughout the expansion. There are some minor caveats you should know about. #1 this expansion can be HARD. There are many things to build and there is not a lot of instruction. Pay that no mind as everyone on the forum is willing to help. #2 Everything in this expansion requires a LOT of resources. You MUST use automation or this will be a super grind fest. That said this is a great expansion and if you own fortresscraft evolved you should certainly pick it up. (Be aware I know of some bad reviews and they are simple vendetta's against the games creator. Pay little mind, yes they exist, no I really dont agree with them). It's like Minecraft! Except instead of mining ore, you build a drill the size of your Minecraft castle to mine ore into your massive automated production lines. Then you call down orbital strikes on massive overminds to stop them from sending wave after wave of bugs at your base. Finally, pump lava from 1km underground to spray it on evil cold fungus trying to take over your base. WHICH IS JUST LIKE MINECRAFT AS FAR AS I KNOW!. Looking through my Steam account, I haven't completed many games. I completed this one, though. Stares.Frozen Factory is (much) more of what you liked (or didn't) about the base game. There's new stuff appearing all the time, which is fun, but this means there are a few rough edges. Eight spawners was a lot - particularly since it ended up being 11 spawners... The magmabore was quite an undertaking. So was tearing it down and rebuilding it when half of it disappeared eyetwitch. With most games, I'd have uninstalled it, and made a mental note to avoid any game with less than overwhelmingly positive reviews. I kept going. Partly because the dev is a Mad Genius, and partly because of charged explosives. Some games get balanced and polished and tweaked to the extent that begin to lose their charm. They turn from a 'game' into 'software'. The experience I've had FCE has encouraged me to be a bit braver with what I decide to play next. It wasn't two hundred hours of bliss, but it has often led me to a contended flow-state, as I wrangled with lifts, mine-carts, and Mr Toasties. I also enjoy cycling in cold weather, and salty porridge with prunes.I did finally achieve my due reward; a terse message saying "Build a railgun". Maybe not today, but I'll be back.
