The Brigade

Firefighting teams compete to protect the burning city of Tinderbox as fireballs rain down from a magical storm. Players manage rival firehouses, spending action points to extinguish fires and earn the Loyalty of local residents. Firehouses can be upgraded with larger crews and improved water wagons to tackle stronger fires. The player who gains enough respect from the city’s neighborhoods and prestigious citizens becomes Fire Chief.
