Overview

Ablaze! includes three separate games:

Wild Fire! - re-works the original Feurio! design, in which players are firefighters trying to contain a spreading wildfire. The fire is created turn by turn as players reveal tiles and place each new tile next to what’s currently the hottest part of the fire. Players use their firefighters to cover as much area as possible, while also staying connected to a water source.

Volcano! - re-implements Vulkan!, which is played with the components of Feurio!. Ablaze! also includes new airplane and volcano tiles. Players control air tankers to drop water in order to extinguish or isolate sections of a fire created by a volcano. Save the most land, and you’ll be the hero.

On the Run! - is played with the same components as the other two games, but with different rules. Lightning has started a brush fire in the forest, and wildlife is fleeing to avoid being fricasseed. Save more animals than anyone else to win.
