Firegirl is a real good little rogue-lite. If its context and gameplay are rather atypical, its structure is very classic. On the other hand, it's so well done that we don't care and the formula is addictive as much as possible. Plus, with its procedurally generated missions that flare up in minutes, Firegirl is the perfect candidate for intense on-the-go gaming sessions.

Those seeking a slower-paced action-platformer with a mix of real-time resource management thrown in will adore Firegirl Hack 'n Splash Rescue DX. It's a tough, but fair game and one that feels a lot more fair than the original release thanks to tweaks with the balance and an in-game rewards system. If you're in the mood for a fun, challenging adventure and have an affinity for side-scrolling action, Firegirl Hack 'n Splash Rescue DX is a must-buy.

The arcade aesthetic, fast-paced platforming action, and gradual drip-feed of unlocks in Firegirl make for an entertaining gameplay loop, especially when considering its subject matter. The game is still rough around the edges and its technical faults can act as annoying setbacks during play, but Firegirl still offers a fresh take on the roguelike genre, with its endless procession of towering infernos putting the skills of even the sharpest platformer fan to the test.

Firegirl: Hack 'n Splash wastes no time throwing you right into the platforming action with a trusty axe and high-powered hose to navigate the levels and rescue the survivors. With only three-minutes the game forces you to think fast and figure out how to conserve your limited water supply. With procedurally generated levels, no two runs will feel exactly the same.

Firlgirl Hack ‘n Splash Rescue DX is a short but snappy rogue-lite experience that will really appeal to busy gamers that are not fond of the excessive grind seen in many modern rogue-lites. The downside to this is it does make the game a tad short. Although, there is no denying the uniqueness of the design that is sure to appeal to those looking for something different in the genre. Despite the game’s notable faults of which there are a fair few I found myself won over by this game and its general charm. All in all, when the fires are extinguished Firegirl maintains a spark in my heart that I will remember for years to come. And maybe it will for you too.
