    Fire Tonight is a gorgeous game with a cool soundtrack, all steeped in the aesthetic of the '90s. It's just a shame that the player doesn't get to spend more time with Devin and Maya, as the brief glimpse into their lives is too short to get attached to them. It's easy to want them to see them reunited, but the fire in the city burns out so quickly that it doesn't leave too much of an impression.

    Working with a mix of a story of young love, where any distance apart can feel like agony, and some reasonably creative puzzle-solving FireWorking with a mix of a story of young love, where any distance apart can feel like agony, and some reasonably creative puzzle-solving Fire Tonight at least has a fresh general feel. That said, if the love story component isn’t something you’re craving, perhaps the essence of the puzzles, navigating through the city as you try to avoid fires (thus the game’s title) and the authorities, may not have enough flavor to sustain the experience. It’s not meant to be long or terribly deep, more of a light snack of story and some exploration that completes itself rather quickly. Not bad, but not terribly inspiring either.
