About the game

What is Firefighters on Duty?

Step into the heat and embrace your heroism with Firefighters on Duty, a real-time, co-operative board game. Players select the scenario and difficulty level they want to play. During the game, players immerse themselves in up to 6 intense, two-minute rounds in which they manage an entire fire department. They're tasked with dispatching vehicles and firefighters across the city, extinguishing fires, saving civilians, and safeguarding properties. Every round, players roll their action dice as quickly as they can and perform actions based on the symbol they roll. Every choice carries weight as the clock is always ticking. You need to work together, make decisions under pressure, and risk it all to keep the city safe. After the last round, points and negative points are added up. If the objective has been achieved and the negative points are minimal, the players win the game. —description from the publisher
