Game
You are the new recruit at the Oakridge fire department. The call comes in, you roll out with the truck, and once you are on site it is up to you to find the victims, cut the power, take an axe to a wall and deal with a fire that has no intention of going out quietly.
This is a simulator and it takes the job seriously. You have to think about grease fires, which extinguisher to grab, where the fuse box is and where the flames are heading next. The radio chatter on the way to the scene does more for the atmosphere than any pop-up text ever could, and in places this honestly feels close to a AAA production. Driving the truck is a highlight, at least if you can keep it out of the road signs. We could not.
It is not a game for everyone, and the asking price is a steep one. We also managed to find a proper game-breaking bug where the truck became one with a road sign and refused to let us out. But if you ever dreamed of being a firefighter as a kid, this is about as close as you get without setting anything on fire.
Co-op
Every fire is a job with more tasks than one person can keep up with, and that is exactly what makes this work. Someone has to cut the power while someone else drags the victim out. Someone takes the front door while someone else comes in through the roof with the foam. Split the work badly and the building simply burns down around you.
Four of you can take a truck out together, and any empty seat is filled by an AI colleague. Santiago and Davis do an alright job, but they miss things, and swapping them out for actual humans is a clear upgrade. The one real annoyance is that you have to finish the tutorial on your own before you can join up. Get past that, crank the difficulty and fail a few missions together, and this becomes a genuinely great evening for four.
