*2026-08-20*

山岳工場(大型のエネルギー台座？)の修理にリアル時間で1151時間、なんと約47日もかかる。イカれてる。

### 5/5 — Request to Add Russian Language Support to Frostpunk: Beyond the Ice

*2026-08-17*

Dear Frostpunk: Beyond the Ice Development Team,

I am a big fan of Frostpunk and was very happy to find the mobile version, Frostpunk: Beyond the Ice, on iPhone.

Unfortunately, I noticed that the game currently does not support the Russian language. I would really appreciate it if you could consider adding Russian localization in a future update.

There is a large Russian-speaking community of Frostpunk fans, and having Russian subtitles and interface would make the game much more accessible to these players. The story, events, laws, and descriptions are an important part of the Frostpunk experience, so understanding them fully is very important.

I would personally be very happy to continue playing and recommending the game if Russian localization becomes available.

Please consider adding Russian language support in a future update. I believe many Russian-speaking players would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for your work and for bringing Frostpunk to mobile devices!

Best regards,
A Frostpunk fan

### 1/5 — Pay to win ( micro transactions) greedy developers

### 2/5 — Potentiel gâché

*2026-07-08*

Tout commence bien dans les premiers âge plein de choses à découvrir et à faire. Un plafond de verre est atteint au chapitre 10 quand la première usine de montagne est obtenue 
Une seule chose vous reste à faire , des maisons… Le jeu est fini.
