Flame Over

In my ongoing and likely futile effort to write a Steam review for every game in my library (#257 out of 612)... it's time for Flame Over. Flame Over is a firefighting game loosely based on twin-stick shooters. The objective of each level is to put out the flames in order to rescue trapped civilians and lead them to the exit. On paper it seems like a great set-up for a simple, engaging action game. In practice... it doesn't quite click for me, for one very simple reason: you can't actually put any of the fires out. Not permanently, at least. The objective of the game is simply to carve a path through the flames to reach the next objective and that's it. There's no real feeling of progression, which is a shame, because methodically moving through a building, having to think tactically about which fires to put and and which ones to leave raging, seems like it could make for a really compelling gameplay experience. Oh well.

Absolute peak probably top 10 games out there tbh

殺時間一流 隨機生成的地圖 玩一玩就1-2小時了 沒太多消防的遊戲 以前玩過PS2的櫻坂消防隊也很好玩

Lo jugué por 1 vez en la psvita como en el 2016 sin parar de morir y ahora lo puedo rejugar sabiendo y entendiendo como funcionan los roguelike, me gusta y es satisfactorio apagar los fuegos

Its a fun simple game. Easy to pick up, yet can be tough. The level generation really does set the tempo in terms of difficulty. Certain something preteens can pick up and play. Achievements seem to be obtainable. Price point is good, highly recommend if its on 75% off. The down sides... At my current pace, I will see everything the game has to offer in 10-12 hours. You can't save a game in progress... or if you can, its not working or i don't see how. Some people are saying the game wipes out all progress (upgrades) when you restart it. I haven't seen that yet. the difficulty is tied to the map lay out, so sometimes, esay easy, other times, a pain in the arse. Upgrade path is simple and short. TLDR: Certainly a good game you can kill an afternoon with and a fair MSRP so if on sale, great bang for the buck.

A rather short game, but a quite challenging one. Putting out fires is a combination between using water and powder. Fires can spread very easily, but once you can buy the right power-ups in your run (RNG BOYZ), things get a little bit easier. The gas levels in the factory are horrible however and you'll not be able to save all people every run, since they get instakilled by fire at times. A little bit frustrating when it happens, but the fact that you can continue even though your time is up - and the reaper will come to get you - makes up for that little flaw. Don't expect too much from this game, it looks like a mobile game but it's good enough for a mere 15 hours of gameplay. Pick it up in a sale with over 80% off, then this game is very much RECOMMENDED!

Honestly what do you expect from an indie casual Firefighter Game? I mean for the price for 1€ you will not do anything bad.

Controls were kinda of janky at first, items do not describe their function, but I liked it well enough to play over 12 hrs (according to Steam, i don't know if it coutns time in pause menu) and beat it. I like the satisfactory feeling of methodically extinguishing all fires.

The music makes me hungry for DiBella subs.
