The call comes in... "911, what is your emergency?" On the other end is a panicked response of "FIRE!" Moments later you don the protective suits that will keep you alive, gather your equipment and rush to the scene of a blazing inferno. The team has only seconds to assess the situation and devise a plan of attack – then you spring into action like the trained professionals that you are. You must face your fears, never give up, and above all else work as a team because the fire is raging, the building is threatening to collapse, and lives are in danger.

You must succeed. You are the brave men and women of fire rescue; people are depending on you. This is what you do every day.

Flash Point: Fire Rescue is a cooperative game of fire rescue.

There are two versions of game play in Flash Point, a basic game and expert game.

In both variants, players are attempting to rescue 7 of 10 victims from a raging building fire.

As the players attempt to rescue the victims, the fire spreads to other parts of the building, causing structural damage and possibly blocking off pathways through the building. Each turn a player may spend action points to try to extinguish fires, move through the building, move victims out of the building or perform various special actions such as moving emergency vehicles. If 4 victims perish in the blaze or the building collapses from taking too much structural damage, the players lose. Otherwise, the players win instantly when they rescue a 7th victim.

The expert variant included in the game adds thematic elements such as flash over, combustible materials, random setup, and variations on game difficulty from novice to heroic. The game includes a double sided board with two different building plans and several expansion maps are available.

This game is on fire!

When we first got this game my video games loving son declared “this is better than video games!” And we’ve played a lot of board games.

A little bit of a learning curve but the it moves pretty quick. We’ve yet to play all the expansions but have them on the shelf ready to go! Great cool theme and play.

Great coop

It was my first coop game and I still have a blast playing it. I think what makes it so great it that the way the fire acts so unpredictably adds to the tension.

Great Game. Kids Love it

Been playing this game for a couple years now. Just recently started playing with my three year old. Although he doesn't understand all the concepts,. It still keeps both of us engaged. That's all I can ask for as a parent

One of my favourite games

Flash Point: Fire Rescue is an amazingly, thematic cooperative game in which 2-6 players take on different firefighter roles to save victims from a burning building. You can choose from 8 specialists in the base game each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Action points decide turns, while dice rolls advance the fire (I dont typically like dice games, but this randomness makes sense for this one). Think you have things under control? Oh no an explosion!! Hopefully the building wont collapse because too much structural damage is an automatic loss. There are four levels of play available: family and 3 experienced levels, recruit, veteran and heroic, making this a game you can play with gamers and non-gamers alike. Specialists include the CAFS Firefighter (gets extra action points to extinguish fire), the Hazmat Tech (can take out Hazardous Materials efficiently), the Imaging Tech (can check on victims remotely), the Fire Captain (can commend other players to move), Driver/Operator (can spray the hose on the fire truck), Paramedic (can treat victims, making them easier to carry out), Rescue Specialist (gets extra movement AP), and the Generalist (has 5 base AP). With many expansions/new game boards this has incredible replay ability.
