This time, we take the role of a firefighter and take part in various rescue operations where we have to put out fires and take care of the aftermath of other calamities.

Firefighting Simulator for PC is, as the title suggests, a simulator were we play as a firefighter. It was developed by Astragon Entertainment, a studio that already made some simulation games like Truck Simulation ’16 where we played as a truck driver. What makes this game stand out among other simulators Is the fact that it uses Unreal Engine 4.
Mechanics
We play as a firefighter who takes part in various rescue missions focusing on taking care of the results of various calamities and putting out fires. Our hero, accompanied by other firefighters, fights fires in different parts of an American metropolis. As we play, we will be putting out fires in houses, mansions, public buildings, and factories.
Firefighting Simulator for PC is divided into missions, each of them being set in a different environment. Difficulty level goes up along with our progress. We observe the action from a first-person perspective. The game uses a special fitler that imitates goggles used by real firefighters.
Technical Aspects
Firefighting Simulator for PC was created in cooperation with Rosenbauer Group, one of the biggest manufacturers of firefighting equipment. As a result, the equipment used in the game is indentical to that used in real life firefighting, including firetrucks like Rosenbauer TP3 Pumper. The game is based on Unreal Engine 4, making its visuals simply stunning (fire is extremely well rendered).
