About Frostrain

Frostrain drops you into a world where climate change has frozen the planet, leaving only you, your passengers, and your train moving across a stark, white landscape. The vivid frozen scenery frames every journey and invites exploration of distant horizons.

Your task is to travel eastward toward the Promised Land while navigating toxic zones and a brewing storm. Along the way you expand your train by adding cars with card decks, and you must keep passengers satisfied to stay in command.

01 / THE GUIDE

Frozen World Setting

The planet is described as a dead, white expanse caused by climate change. This setting determines the visual style and the types of hazards you encounter as you move across the map.

Among the hazards are toxic areas and a severe storm that follows the train. Both are mentioned as obstacles that must be considered while heading toward the eastern edge of the world.

  • Observe how the landscape changes near toxic zones; visual cues can help you avoid them.
  • Watch the storm’s position on the horizon to gauge how quickly it is approaching.

02 / THE GUIDE

Passenger Happiness Management

Passengers work diligently when you give commands, but the game notes that their happiness must be managed. If you fail to keep them happy, they may throw you off the train, ending the run.

Happiness therefore acts as a gauge of how well you are handling the journey. Monitoring it lets you anticipate potential problems before they force you off the train.

  • Keep an eye on any happiness indicator the game provides to spot drops early.
  • Consider the impact of adding new cars on passenger satisfaction before confirming a deck.

Building Your Train with Card Decks

Each city you pass allows you to launch a heavy‑lift drone and add new train cars using card decks. The choice of cards determines the composition of your train.

The description warns that choices can lead to a better‑synergized train or to a less effective one, meaning each decision directly influences how the train performs.

  • Review the existing cars before adding a new deck to see how they might interact.
  • Try different card combinations in separate runs to see which setups feel most cohesive.

04 / THE GUIDE

Journey to the Promised Land

The ultimate destination is described as the Promised Land on the eastern edge of the world. Reaching it requires moving through toxic zones and staying ahead of a storm.

Success depends on maintaining passenger happiness and a well‑built train, as both are mentioned as factors that affect safe passage through the hazards.

  • Prioritize routes that keep you clear of toxic zones when possible.
  • Watch the storm’s progress as you continue the journey eastward.

05 / THE GUIDE
