The heat is on! Fire Captain: Bay Area Inferno ignites the 3D Real-Time Strategy genre with an entirely new battlefield - the fire and rescue scene. Players are challenged to keep their cool as they manage a squad of elite firefighters in a variety of fast-paced, unpredictable, and explosive emergency scenarios. Fire chiefs command fire squads and vehicles to extinguish flames and save victims in five single player campaigns with increasingly complex missions based on real-life events. Set in a metropolitan city along the U.S. west coast, players face the challenging perils of human-caused and natural disasters. Tackle windswept brush fires that threaten a hillside of suburban homes and the forest just beyond. Use special extinguishing agents and techniques to battle chemical fires in manufacturing plants and at a fireworks factory; stay on track as a runaway train leaves a trail of emergencies; and save victims and battle blazes downtown after the 'Big One' rattles the city. In this captivating simulation, every moment counts: fire and smoke spread with incredible realism, combustible materials threaten to turn two-alarm fires into raging infernos, structures weaken as fire spreads and intensifies, and victims cling to life as injuries mount.
