Use your cortex to dominate the courts.



<span class="bold">Frozen Cortex</span>, a turn-based sports management game, is available now for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 75% launch discount.

Competitive sports are not unlike war: they require deep strategic thinking, surgical execution, adaptiveness, creativity, and the occasional stroke of luck. Frozen Cortex, the spiritual successor of Frozen Synapse, lets you engage in all that as you manage your team and your custom-made players on the road to victory. Building your roster can be just as important as guiding their positions and actions on the playfield, and if you ever get tired of the four single-player modes, you can fight your friends for the coveted title of the ultimate Frozen Cortex champion. After all, you do have that free extra copy that's waiting to be gifted...



Play hard ball and dominate the tactical fields of <span class="bold">Frozen Cortex</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. If you are addicted to the soundtrack or crave some additional customization, make sure to grab the <span class="bold">Soundtrack Tier</span>, the <span class="bold">Mega Tier</span>, or the <span class="bold">Ultimate Tier</span>. The 75% discount will last for the duration of the Summer Sale.


In the press:
"Frozen Cortex is one of the deepest strategic experiences on PC" - PC Gamer
"Its distilled tension makes each match feel like the best of sport and strategy gaming" - Rock Paper Shotgun
"Another brilliant slice of strategy from Mode 7" - Eurogamer

And now please fix one more thing - add links of those DLC's to the base game card as an optional content https://www.gog.com/game/frozen_cortex ;)

So if I'm understanding this correctly, to get everything you have to buy the game, the soundtrack, and both "tiers"? So the total base price would be about $85, and even at 75% off it's $21.36 to get everything.

I think so, but perhaps it's better to wait some time until GOG is sure how to price this game and set it up :-)
It's strange that the Frozen Cortex Ultimate Tier edition on St*** is more expensive than the base game and all DLC separate. It costs 92,99€ in Germany.

Quite unhappy. I think Judaslscariot got the meaning of the Ultimate DLC as a "truely" ultimate DLC at the time when he set up, same as I did.

By the way, $100-worth DLC? I think the developers want to plaster every wall in their house with green.

JudasIscariot: If you have bought the Ultimate Tier DLC in the hopes that you would have everything, please send Support a ticket as you will need to get a refund for the Ultimate Tier DLC.
You know it's really a mess.
Because moments ago people who brought Ultimate Tier DLC ACTUALLY HAD ALL CONTENTS which were removed few minutes ago. :P

Why is the requirement for the base game not displayed at its usual spot on the Frozen Cortex: Ultimate Tier? It's almost unnoticeable were it is now.

And the OST Tiers don't mention anything about requiring the game in order to purchase them. Is this an oversight or can one actually purchase them without owning the game?


Looks like the release was a bit rushed, and a few things went south?

An oversight. If you go to the checkout screen, it won't let you complete the purchase.

Grargar: By the way, does the online multiplayer require the Galaxy client? Or is it like Frozen Synapse, which requires a serial key and account registration at the developer's site? Or something else?
You get a serial key, seems like it works the same way as previous game. You also get a second copy of the game.

Indeed. The page now has a notice:

"Multiplayer notice: In order to access the multiplayer portion of the game, you must first enter your unique CD key. This CD key can be found in your account page."

May I suggest you edit the games page to point to the DLC as well as inform the user that each tier is exclusive of all other tiers?
Posted June 17, 2016
Would it be possible to also get a "complete edition" that includes all the tiers, but won't get marked as owned if you buy them separately? I really like those.
Posted June 18, 2016
The game does look interesting, but do they really want 30 bucks for three ingame items and one additional team? o0 kthxby ...
Posted June 18, 2016
That is some poorly named, poorly explained DLC bullshit right there. And despite being released a year ago, some of the DLC content is "coming soon" too?! The only thing that can make this better? Missing DLC! Lovely. :)

Wait, what? When I bought the Ultimate Tier, the description page for it said it included the soundtrack and everything in the mega tier. Now after reading this, I went back and looked at the description page for Ultimate Tier and everything that used to be written there has been removed. Is this true? The Ultimate Tier does not include the stuff in the Mega Tier? IF so that is fucking false advertising since when I bought it it said that it did include it.

I just emailed support about this, this still doesn't seem right. I think the items they removed from the Ultimate Tier description are supposed to be there, otherwise the pricing doesn't make any sense. The Mega Tier still includes the soundtracks and is priced in-between the Soundtrack and Ultimate Tiers, but the high end Ultimate Tier only includes three pieces of in-game customizations? That doesn't seem right at all.

I think GOG had it correct the way they initially advertised it. Either way, I emailed them and asked them to provide me with everything that was advertised at the time I made my purchase. I'm sure they'll get this straightened out. GOG support has always been top-notch whenever I've dealt with them.
