11 bit studios Welcome Sale: Frostpunk, This War of Mine and More Up to 90% Off
The 11 bit studios Welcome Sale is live on Gamesporium, and it covers one of the strongest catalogues in modern strategy and survival gaming. The Polish studio has spent more than a decade building games that ask difficult questions, and this sale brings the best of that work down to some of its lowest prices of the year. The sale runs until September 29.
Four standout titles, discounts reaching 90%, and a catalogue built on games that stay with you long after the credits roll.
Frostpunk: Game of the Year Edition
Frostpunk put 11 bit studios on the map for a reason. You lead the last city on a frozen Earth, and every choice you make carries a cost. Do you send children to work in the mines to keep production going? Do you ration food and risk unrest, or feed everyone and run out sooner? The game never gives you a clean answer, and that is exactly the point.
The Game of the Year Edition packs in the additional scenarios and content released after launch, so you get the full experience in one purchase. At 85% off, this is the cheapest possible entry into a series that has influenced city builders ever since.
This War of Mine: Complete Edition
Most war games put you behind a rifle. This War of Mine does the opposite. You play as a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city, scavenging for food and medicine while avoiding snipers and armed looters. Days are for staying hidden and managing your shelter. Nights are for going out and taking risks.
The Complete Edition bundles the base game together with its expansions, including The Little Ones, which adds children to your group and changes how you weigh every decision. It is widely studied as an example of games handling serious subject matter with care, and at 85% off there is no better time to see why.
Frostpunk 2
The sequel moves the story forward thirty years. The immediate crisis of survival has passed, and now you manage a growing city-state where politics matter as much as heat. You are no longer deciding what one community eats tonight. You are balancing factions with competing beliefs, passing laws through a council, and living with the consequences when those groups turn against each other.

Frostpunk 2 asks you to think in decades rather than days, and the scale of it makes for a very different game from the original. At 50% off, it is a strong pick whether you played the first one or not.
The Alters: Deluxe Edition
The Alters is the most recent and most unusual title in this sale. You play Jan Dolski, stranded alone on a hostile planet with a mobile base and a deadline. To survive, you create alternate versions of yourself, each one shaped by a different choice Jan could have made in his life. One became a scientist. One became a technician. All of them are Jan, and none of them fully agree with him.
The result is part base management, part survival, and part character study. Your crew argues, holds grudges, and has opinions about the decisions you make. The Deluxe Edition adds bonus content on top of the base game, and it is currently 35% off.
Where to Start
If you have never played an 11 bit studios game, Frostpunk is the easiest place to begin. It teaches you how the studio thinks, and the Game of the Year Edition at 85% off makes the decision simple. If you want something quieter and more personal, This War of Mine is the stronger choice and sits at the same discount.
Players who already know the studio will find more value in Frostpunk 2 and The Alters, since both take familiar ideas in new directions. Whatever you pick, the sale ends on September 29, so there is a clear window to decide.
