I first saw a sample of Rapture's work in September 1999 and was shocked at the quality of the graphics in the game demo I saw. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I knew that Microsoft Windows CE was capable of running incredible games, but I hadn't seen any that really blew me away. A few months later, Rapture brought us Fire Drill. Armed with a fire extinguisher and plenty of moxie, you must guide your character through a maze of offices and cubicles, many of them ablaze. The character in the game looks remarkably like Peter from The Family Guy which added to my amusement with the game.
Game play is simple but fun.
You use the stylus to tap on the fire you want to put out, and your character races to the blaze and squirts it with the extinguisher. One squirt, and it's out. The problem is, much like the real office environment, there's never just one fire to put out. And if you're too slow, the fire will spread by shooting off little fireballs that slowly roll across the floor, lighting ablaze anything they touch. The layout of the game.
