What it is
An arcade flying game for iPhone. Short missions, made to be played one more time.
- The FB-415
- A small water bomber. Skim a lake to fill the tank, line up on the smoke, and drop it all in one pass. Left thumb flies, right thumb drops.
- Nadia and Hal
- Two voices in your ear the whole way. She sees the whole map. He sees your last drop, and has thoughts about it.
- Ten stories
- One fire season, told in ten missions. Each one is inspired by fire country somewhere in the world, from northern lakes to dry southern hills. The places and fires are made up.
- A secret level
- There’s one more level that isn’t on the list. We won’t say where it is.
