From the works that can be played on the game title distribution platform “Steam”, we have picked up recommended indie games that are strictly prohibited from being overlooked, from “popular works of the current topic” to “rare works inevitable for Tsukkomi”! Introducing this time is “Firefighting Simulator –The Squad”.

Emergency dispatch!Go to the fire scene
“Firefighting Simulator –The Squad” is a 3D action simulator developed by Chronos Unterhaltungs software. The player operates a member of the fire brigade that saves people from the fire. Try to extinguish the fire quickly and make a name for yourself as a firefighter full of wisdom and courage.
The basic flow of this work is “express to the fire site-> rush into the house-> rescue people who are late to escape-> extinguish the fire at the source of the fire”, and quick action is required throughout the entire process. While there are many detailed steps, the tension of witnessing a life-threatening mission is moderate. Also, although it is deformed to some extent because it is a game work, the detailed expression is carefully described like a simulator.
Basic flow of the game
The game starts when you undertake a mission from the main menu. After rushing to the fire site with a fire truck, we will finally rush into the house. However, the point is not to plunge into the dark clouds, but to visually check the damage situation first. If you know the number and momentum of the fire source, you can efficiently put it into practice when extinguishing the fire with the nozzle later.
Not only does each house have a different internal structure, but there are also places that are impassable due to some obstacle. In such a case, change the tool as appropriate and try and error to see if you can break through. For example, a locked door can be forcibly opened with a crowbar.
Lifesaving is one of the most important matters. If there are people who cannot move on their own due to injury, etc., lift them up and transport them to the emergency bed near the vehicle. Don’t forget to ensure your safety through places where the fire source is weak, as the movement speed will slow down while you are carrying it.
After carrying out the rescuer, we moved to a large-scale fire extinguishing. Hold the nozzle and discharge water in any direction. If you want to extinguish the fire faster, focus on the gray fire source icon. Instead of swinging the nozzle around, the trick is to continue discharging water so as to crush each fire source.
Teamwork is more important than anything else in order to minimize fire damage. Thorough sharing work will give you results in less time than if you were alone. Use different movement commands to move the squad members to any place depending on the situation, and make the procedure as efficient as possible.
The squad members act according to the player’s instructions, and when the fire source is near, they hold the nozzle and automatically start water discharge. In addition to extinguishing an adjacent fire source with the player, it is also possible to combine it with a movement command, such as directing a squad member to a fire source far away to extinguish the fire.
“I want to get rid of the obstacles and rush in, but I have to get the tools back to the vehicle.” In such a case, give instructions to the squad members near the vehicle and ask them to use the tools instead of the player. At that time, if you give each member (including yourself) the tools to deal with the obstacle, you can deal with all situations without changing the tools.
“Firefighting Simulator-The Squad” not only teaches us the “fear of fire” through 3D action, but also allows us to experience the “figure of a firefighter confronting a fire”. It also has a multiplayer function, so if you gather players, you can fight fires in real time while cooperating. If you have a burning rescue spirit, why not give it a try?
