4	The world has been plunged into a man-made ice age in a bid to save humanity from human-alien hybrids. [[LaResistance A resistance movement]] has been formed by the survivors. On your way to meet with them, your character gets stranded in Duga-40, the experimental city. Now you need to explore the city, fight alien mutants, learn the history of Duga-40, and try to survive long enough to repair your transport and continue on your journey.

9	!!Frozen State contains examples of:
10	* ActionGirl: One of the three playable characters is Maria, a nuclear physicist who is more reliant on stealth than the other characters, but is also the best at deploying high-tech weaponry when confrontation is unavoidable.
11	* BearsAreBadNews: In addition to all the mutants, bears are an enemy faced in the game. On the bright side, you can at least hunt them for meat.
12	* BreakableWeapons: All of the weapons will degrade with use.
13	* CarFu: When you're driving in a car, you can use it to run over enemies.
14	* CutAndPasteEnvironments: This is the flip side of a procedurally generated map.
15	* CyanidePill: All of the player characters start with cyanide in their inventory, to reflect just how bleak the world has become.
16	* EndlessWinter: The game is set in a world going through a man-made ice age.
17	* ItemCrafting: You can use resources from the world around you to make things.
18	* MultiArmedAndDangerous: One of the enemies in the game has four arms, the lower set being used both as feet and claws.
19	* NoPeripheralVision: You can see the enemies' cone of vision while sneaking. While it is wider than the most egregious examples, it still prevents them from noticing anything directly to their side.
20	* PermaDeath: When the player character dies, you are either offered the option to load the last save, or a "Game Over" that'll delete it and force you to start over.
21	* ProcedurallyGeneratedLevels: The map is procedurally generated at the start of the game.
22	* PublicDomainSoundtrack: Most of the soundtrack is original, but it also features [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr1lkoFGs_4&list=PLoiHQQ_2IusnfVYum6fBt_9wTwZ748Hw9&index=17 a famous piece]] by Music/PyotrIlyichTchaikovsky.
23	* SprintMeter: Every character has a stamina meter, which is used for doing anything physical.
24	* WizardNeedsFoodBadly: Since this is a survival game, regularly eating, drinking and sleeping is a necessity.
