Towering Inferno: Fire Rescue

Ladder Company Number 7 is renowned for their ability to scale buildings, but when the new downtown high-rise catches fire it will take all of their skill to tackle this Towering Inferno! It’s up to you, and a partner if they’re joining, to rescue all of the inhabitants of the high-rise: 18 in all displayed on 18 cards each with unique hand-drawn art! Set up: Shuffle all 18 cards to form a face down pile, then place 3 cards in a row face down, then 3 cards offset below the first cards but placed face up. Continue this pattern until all cards are displayed. (see below): Playing the game: Each turn, the player will take one of the face up cards that is completely uncovered: in the example above, the lowest 3 cards are considered uncovered. All of the other cards behind them are partially covered. The player will assign the card as a Goal: OR as a Person who meets the Goal when saved (see below): The player continues this way setting aside up to 3 cards as Goals and then attempting to assign the next card to one of the Goals. Each card can be used in multiple Goals but should be assigned to one in particular. Winning the game: After all of the cards from the fiery building have been rescued and assigned, the player (or players if playing 2 player) will win the game. They count up their score using the Goal cards. Each time the game is played, aim for a higher score! Unique presentation that stands out among other 18 cards games and other firefighter games: Towering Inferno Fire Rescue continues the Rescue game tradition set forth in Safe and Hound, The Great Train Rescue, and other games in the series. It is a fully contained game in just 18 cards presented as a print and play with 2 sheets of paper for cards 1-9 and cards 10-18 on the first and second pages. There is also a page of card backs for players to print as well. The Rescue games present a unique and fun experience for players of all skill sets. Towering Inferno is a distinct set up from the other games making it unique to itself. It is also one of two Rescue games that allows two players to work together. Perfect for date night to play before dinner arrives, portable enough to get put in a purse or pocket and fast enough to set up that the waitstaff and other onlookers will be curious what you're up to. Ignite those sparks with this hot game! —description from the designer
