Fulfill Your Dreams Of Being A Fireman With Flash Point
April 6, 2013 by brennon
Flash Point: Fire Rescue by Indie Boards & Cards is a pretty big deal and has enjoyed massive success and acclaim from across the board gaming community. So with an expansion in the works, well lots more than just one in fact, it felt right to mention it.
Dangerous Waters and Extreme Danger are both big expansions for the main game, with Extreme Danger being the focus of a Kickstarter Campaign right now which is also bringing some neat new miniatures too...
While the prospect of board gaming as a Fireman don't appeal to everyone it is a lot of fun. You'll be dosing fires, avoiding back drafts and hacking things apart with a fire axe in no time.
If you check out the Flash Point portion of their website you will also see a link to a video review by eminent maestro of cardboard Drakkenstrike.
Check out the Kickstarter and get fighting fires!
First image: Cool, nice artwork.
Second image: Nice, looks like it takes itself seriously.
Third image: Super-deformed? Eff this, I’m out.
Eff yeah, I’m in. I’ve had the main game on my wish list for a while now. Im a firefighter, and these chibi figs say that this is a fun game about firefighting, not an ultra-realistic one.
A lot of reviews I’ve seen say the game is great, but all the visual elements are pretty bad. A shame, really, since it turns some people away (myself included). I don’t know if it draws people in to make up for it, but it seems the game is good enough to enjoy success so far.
This one goes on and off my list, though. There’s enough stuff out there without a “meh” visual factor that ends up with priority.
