What is Frostrail?

Frostrail is a frozen-world survival FPS from developer FakeFish and publisher Shiro Unlimited. You play as one of the Penitent Gardeners, mercy-givers who purge Revenants and eldritch horrors from an empire ruined by the Emperor's pact with the Void.

Your armored steam train, the Eden Engine, is home, furnace, workshop, and lifeline. Fuel it, reinforce it, and add carriages and crafting stations, then push north through abandoned settlements, wreckage, dungeons, and vaults for materials, Relics, and weapons. Play solo or with a co-op crew.

Master Frostrail's frozen frontier with beginner routes, Eden Engine upgrades, crafting chains, weapon roles, enemy locations, co-op roles, and demo news.

Frostrail Beginner Guide

Learn the core Frostrail loop: prepare aboard the Eden Engine, scout exits, scavenge frozen levels, and return with materials before the cold wins.

1Stoke the Eden Engine, check the cab heat, and top off fuel before leaving the train.
2Scout the level exits first, then loot with a time budget instead of panic.
3Refine metal scraps into slag metal and then pure metal at the onboard refinery.
4Save scarce ammunition for Revenants and elites, and use melee finishers on wounded enemies.
5Return to the train with enough fuel for the trip back and repair gear before the next run.
Read Full Guide

Frostrail Train Upgrades

Keep the Eden Engine fueled, repaired, and reinforced, then expand storage, carriages, and crafting stations as your crew pushes north.

EngineFuel the Eden Engine first; a stalled train in open cold ends the run.
RepairsRepair damaged systems before buying new modules so breakdowns do not compound.
StorageAdd storage and hauling capacity so valuable loot comes home instead of being left behind.
DefenseReinforce walls, hatches, and doors to keep boarders off the train during defense events.
CarriagesExpand with carriages for workstations, refining, and shared crew inventory.
BoardingUse the improved access ramp and clear windows to board and exit faster under pressure.

Frostrail Survival Tips

Manage heat, clothing, food buffs, ammunition, and blizzards while exploring far from the train's warmth.

HeatWarmth comes from the Eden Engine; never let the fire die before a long interior crawl.
ClothingInsulation sets extend how far you can travel from the cab before the cold bites.
FoodFood grants buffs rather than filling a hunger meter, so eat before fights and deep runs.
AmmoAmmunition is scarce; count engagements before you fire and finish wounded enemies in melee.
BlizzardBlizzards cut visibility and movement, so plan shorter routes when the weather turns.
FuelBranches, logs, and charcoal feed the engine; never leave a town with a low reserve.
Read Full Guide

Frostrail Crafting and Resources

Refine metal scraps, wood, plastic, and cloth at onboard stations, then craft ammunition, gear, and modular weapons for the next expedition.

ScrapMetal scraps refine into slag metal, then pure metal for repairs and weapon parts.
WoodWood follows a multi-step refinement chain and also feeds the Eden Engine as logs and branches.
PlasticPlastic follows a similar refinement path and supports gear and station construction.
ClothCloth becomes cold-mitigation clothing for expeditions beyond the cab.
FuelBranches, logs, and charcoal are fuel inputs, so crafting and travel compete for the same pile.
BenchCrafting benches, refineries, and the Assembly Station travel with the train.

Frostrail Weapons and Combat

Compare Frostrail weapon roles, from the modular Bolt-Action Rifle and close-range shotguns to pistols and melee finishers.

S Tier

Bolt-Action Rifle - modular platform assembled at the Assembly Station for deliberate mid-range shots.

A Tier

Shotgun - close-range burst against humanoid Revenants; make every shell count.

B Tier

Rifle - mid-range precision to pick threats before they close on the crew.

C Tier

Pistol - cheap backup shots and light Revenant cleanup when ammo is tight.

Frostrail Co-op Guide

Split Engineer, Quartermaster, Scavenger, and Vanguard duties so a Frostrail crew keeps the train warm and the expeditions supplied.

1Agree on roles before departure: Engineer, Quartermaster, Scavenger, and Vanguard.
2Keep one player aboard to feed the Eden Engine and watch the cab heat while others loot.
3Share storage and crafting duties so ammunition, food, and repair materials stay stocked.
4Rotate the Scavenger and call retreats together instead of letting one player overextend.
5Play the same survival loop solo or with friends; co-op adds tempo and shared risk.

Frostrail Enemies and Locations

RevenantsHumanoid enemies and elites guard interiors and punish careless ammo use.
WolvesHostile creatures pressure expeditions away from the train and chase stragglers.
TownsAbandoned settlements provide supplies, equipment, and environmental storytelling.
WreckageSalvage beside the rails is a low-risk stop for scrap and basic materials.
DungeonsModular dungeons shift layout between runs and pay out Relics for the train.
VaultsSubterranean vaults are high-risk interiors with powerful weapons as rewards.
BunkersDerelict bunkers offer enclosed exploration and tight combat against Revenants.
