What players say

Players fondly compare it to classic Emergency and Fire Chief games, enjoying the modern visuals and squad-based strategy. However, many complain about the lack of autosave, a game-breaking crash around mission five, and a janky fire spread system. Some say the campaign is too short and the tutorial is tedious.
