In Frostpunk 2, one of the first essential buildings players need to construct is the Research Institute. This building grants access to the Idea Tree, which allows players to unlock more buildings and upgrades.
The primary objective of Frostpunk 2 is the overall development of the city. This will ensure a better lifestyle for the citizens, and for that, players need to focus on building the Research Institute in the game in order to get more upgrades. This article will help players build more Research Institutes in the city.
Guide to building more Research Institutes in Frostpunk 2
Research Institute is a major part of Frostpunk 2 and will help players in order to build a developed city. Research Institutes will come up with technological and sociological solutions that will eventually help the city to grow.
However, to build these Research Institutes players need to follow some steps. First of all, they must construct and expand a Housing District to unlock the potential to build a Research Institute. In Frostpunk 2, expanding a district provides it with one additional building slot, and the Research Institute can only be built within Housing Districts.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to build more Research Institutes in the game:
- Step 1: Players need to build a Housing District in the city
- Step 2: Expand the district. It will cost additional Prefabs and Heatmaps.
- Step 3: Players need to choose the Research Institute in the Buildings Menu.
- Step 4: The game will show the player a black marker in the Housing District. Players can build the Research Institute there.
At first, players will be allowed to build a single Research Institute. However, as they progress in the game and grow in their city, they will be allowed to build two Research Buildings in each District.
How to Improve Research Speed
Once the Research Institute is built, players will look for maximum output. However, players must unlock the Idea Tree to improve the Research Speed. More research institutes will do the same. Players will need to decide how they want to shape their city before establishing several Research Institutes.
