Wildfire Swap

Very smart! One of those games that takes a few simple mechanics and really simmers on them. I'm ignited by the amount of puzzles; just when I thought I'd burned through them, I realized things were just heating up! Also, while there isn't a lot of flare, the style and music are quite char-ming.

Edit - Tapping out at 94% complete. Some of those B-side puzzles are wicked. Recommended - It is worth paying full price for. Excellent puzzle game reminiscent of Stephen's Sausage Roll and Fidel Dungeon Rescue. It's a turn based puzzler where you take a turn to manipulate the environment, and then a wildfire takes its turn to spread across the environment. Starts off simple - move the burning forest tiles and keep the houses out of danger - but it quickly increases in complexity through the addition of multiple ignition sources, tiles like grass that spread fire quick but burn out, and wind that allow forest fires to spread over gaps. How you manage empty tiles will be the key to your success. After two hours i'm 55% of the way through, but I've played a lot of these types of games so I'm not sure if that's indicative of a standard play though. There appears to be five worlds, and each world has a B-side for that extra challenge, but I found unexpectedly that I was solving the com...

Fantastic compact little puzzle game. Has all the hallmarks of good puzzle game design and plenty of hours of puzzles to solve. Lots of clever little details and absolutely worth your time if you like puzzles.

I thought I was good at puzzles. i'm really not really really not

Review for people with visual impairment. - No accessibility options - Very low contrast - Most of the screen is well not used, I am all for minimalistic look but this looks like it belongs on the mobile phone. Can't really say much about the game, seams like a solid puzzler. I refunded the game because there are no accessibility options.

https://youtu.be/A_coTXQaLy0 Wildfire Swap is a simple minimalist tiled based puzzler, in which you need to keep the fires away from your houses. Overall it is a simple concept and is a they a few new mechanics in each new area, overall the game seems simple but some of those levels are tough to get through. Overall if you love puzzle games, I would pick it up at full price, if your like me and your ok at them, then I think you can wait until its on sale and still have a blast!

[h3]Summary[/h3][b]If you are up for a challenge it is an OK game.[/b] The rules are extremely simple and you get them immediately. But the combination of those simple rules will laugh at your face, destroy your ego and make you wear a scarf in public to trick people into believing you aren't dumb. I had to ask myself what was I doing wrong, trying multiple combinations in a rational organized manner to no avail. [h3]The real truth[/h3] Then I got covid and began to win. I am not kidding! So the real question is, was someone writing this game while on covid? Is people trying to program chips inside games so covid can re-program us all as free working automatons for Elon Musk while depopulation happens under WWIII? Are these indie developers pushing good Linux compatibility because the best software is actually evil? It worked well with Fedora 37, but now I wonder if recent system upgrade bugs were also due to covid... Will the slaves of the future go to work in their Teslas? So n...

Quick Description: -Wildfire Swap is a minimalist tiled based puzzler that is far more challenging and fun than you would expect. It has a very simple art style, but one that works well w/ the game mechanics. The pacing is solid, and it will slowly throw more challenges at you. There are even B Side levels that really ramp up the challenge, and may even stump the most experienced puzzler fanatics. What's Good: -I love when a game takes a very simple mechanic and bases the entire game around it. The entire game revolves around the way fire spreads, and doing everything you can to keep your houses from catching on fire. This mechanic will evolve as the game introduces other mechanics such as wind, which ramps up the challenge and complexity in the later levels. -This is such an easy game to play regardless of your background or gaming experience. You can play this entire game w/ just a mouse, and you don't need to have strong hand-eye-coordination in order to excel at this game. ...

Cool puzzle game, has a very simple/intuitive ruleset but gets tough in the late game optional puzzles. You have to think a few moves ahead to be successful.

Set the world on fire, but save your house. 10/10 🔥
