About the game

What you do in a play session

If you thought the original Flash Point: Fire Rescue already kept you on your toes, get ready for more! The "2nd Story" expansion arrives to crank up the heat and the challenge, introducing two new building game boards, so you'll have to manage more floors. Now, besides putting out fires and saving people, you'll need to figure out how to move up and down between floors, using ladders and even windows (without breaking everything, of course!).

This expansion adds more pieces and tactical options, like new ladders and explosion markers, making the game even more dynamic and unpredictable. The objective remains the same: save as many lives as possible and get out before the building collapses or the fire gets out of control. But with more space to explore and more dangers to handle, the coordination among your firefighter team will be tested to the limit. It's the kind of game that keeps you on the edge of your seat, hoping the next dice roll brings salvation and not disaster. If you enjoy the tension and adrenaline of Flash Point, this expansion is a must-have for those seeking more of this cooperative and thrilling experience.
