About

Master the elements in this stealth game where everything burns!REUNITE YOUR VILLAGEIn a world where magic has all but died out, you've been branded a witch by villainous forces who fear your elemental power. Outsmart the superstitious armies of the Arch Duchess as they hunt you through lush forests, deep caverns, and over frozen mountaintops. Find and free your fellow villagers from captivity, then lead them to safety and reclaim your home.CONTROL YOUR ENVIRONMENTThrow fireballs to set the world ablaze and terrify your foes. Freeze water to cross impassable lakes, or trap enemies in ice. Move earth itself to grow grass to hide in, or vines to climb and reach new heights. Grow your connection with the elements to learn new abilities, but beware: fire will spread and consume everything in its path – including you!PLAY YOUR WAYCreep through tall grass and conceal yourself in smoke to slip by enemies unnoticed - or burn everything in your path to make your foes panic and flee. Use your enemies’ fear against them to create opportunities to slip past, or trick them into their own demise. Wildfire lets you play as a ghost, a pyromaniac, and everything in between.INTELLIGENT, CHALLENGING ENEMIESThe knights, archers, and trained attack bobcats who pursue you will intelligently work together to hunt you down. They will investigate sound disturbances, communicate with each other, and coordinate to close in on your position. Only by turning your environment against these foes can you overcome their superior strength.TWO PLAYER LOCAL CO-OPWildfire can be played entirely in singleplayer, or in two-player, local co-operative mode on the same screen. Use your elemental powers in tandem with one another to find entirely new ways through Wildfire’s dense, systemic environment.

Wildfire reviews and comments

A super fun stealth game that lacks in options once you've been discovered except running and hiding
The stealth just isn't all that fun. The elemental magic is super cool and varied but it is failed by level design and the frankly annoying extra objectives that, even though rarely, seem to contradict the main objective or make you work around for minutes on end.
They had a great idea but it didn't really stick
Local co-op games deserve a bit more slack as its a rare opportunity in this gaming age and so some of the barebones and bad user interface is forgiven, but not the bad core mechanics like the almost unavoidable dead once pinned down by an enemy, the sudden spikes in difficulty and no real sense of progression.

The pixel graphic is nice but the difference between player 1 in a desaturated blue and player 2 in a desaturated red is just cause of confusion all the time and the moment fires and multiple enemies fill the screen you will just get lost. Player 2 is at the mercy of player 1's camera.

In the end an interesting title for a weekend, but nothing beyond it.
