Is it getting cold in here, or just me? Why surviving the cold is such a popular strategy theme today
As a game enthusiast, I’ve found myself drawn to a peculiar trend among my favorites: Frostpunk, Whiteout Survival, Landnama – the list continues. What links them all? It’s their shared obsession with the chilling prospect of perishing from the cold. This theme seems oddly prevalent in many games, and intriguingly so within the strategy genre. The question arose in my mind, and I believe I’ve pinpointed some reasons for this recurring motif.
