After an extinction-level event wiped out almost the entire planet, only the residents of Snowdell remained. Three tribes reside in the town, which acts as your hub between runs.
Part of the game mechanics also involves upgrading your village and unlocking companions, pets, items, and encounter types by achieving goals during your runs.
MEET THE TRIBES OF WILDFROST
The three tribes are the Snowdwellers, Shademancers, and Clunkmasters. Snowdwellers are characterized by their affinity with frost and various stun moves.
Along with your leader, you also can choose a pet. Each tribe has a pet with corresponding attributes. For example, the Snowdewellers’ pet will attack and apply a stunning snowball to its target.
On top of that, there are extra pets that can be unlocked during your runs. You will also encounter a Naked Gnome on the enemy’s side at some point. Spare him and gain the best pointless card of all time.
IT’S NOT PERFECT, BUT WILDFROST OFFERS GREAT GAMEPLAY
While your items and charms don’t carry over, any unlocks and discoveries will join the pool of random encounters. You cannot brute force your way through Wildfrost.
