Fire is among the most destructive forces of nature, since it leaves nothing behind and it can spread extremely fast, unless it is quickly brought under control. On the other hand, standing in the way of it is highly dangerous as well, which means that the people who do so always risk their life in order to save others and prevent a catastrophe.

Emergency Fire Response is a game that allows you to witness the destruction of fire and do your best to contain it, as well as manipulate various machinery, save victims and make sure that your firefighters get out unharmed as well. Thus, over the course of a variety of scenarios, you get to appreciate just how dangerous and unpredictable fire really is, as well as learn the basics of how to handle it.

The game uses slightly tweaked RTS mechanics to deliver the experience, which means that you can observe the events from a top-view perspective and manually control every unit as you see fit. Naturally, just as in every other strategy game, every unit has a life bar and it can be lost, especially if you are reckless and keep them in the fire for too long.

Since the missions usually take place in the city, there are many people affected by the disaster and caught in the fire. Fortunately, you can use the troops to save them, although you have to move quickly and avoid getting the men stuck as well. Depending on the situation, the mission fails after a certain number of people die, which means that you have to keep an eye on a lot of things, other than the fire itself.

As far as your units are concerned, each one of them has various abilities that can be used in order to improve efficiency and handle the situations. Hence, some of your men can drive certain vehicles and get them out of the way, while others are specialized in first aid. The vehicles can be manually controlled as well and they hold a variety of different substances, each one of which is designed to extinguish a certain type of fire.

While the actual gameplay could have been more refined, Emergency Fire Response is definitely a worthy title, especially when it comes to simulating the dangers of disasters involving fire. Moreover, it also teaches you a lesson or two about their power and how to avoid falling prey to them.
