Panic, Fire! The game where you put out the flames. A firefighter doesn't think twice. Head straight for danger and rescue people and valuables from the burning building. As you approach fire, you'll point your hose automatically and start spraying. Maintain water pressure on the fire and watch it decrease it ferocity. Fully extinguish the flame! Any smouldering embers can reignite a blaze, so wait for the tell-tale puff of smoke that appears when the fire is truly out. Don't get too close! If you stand too near the flame, you'll overheat and fail the level. Pay attention to the meter at the top of the screen. Save people, animals, and valuables—in that order! The only safe place is the rescue zone outside, so deliver your payloads safely, one at a time. Once you put out all the flames and save all the valuables, it's level complete and on to the next raging fire! Turn on the sirens today and try to stay calm... download Panic, Fire! today.
