Take The Reins. Put Out Fires. Rebuild A Whole Town.
Rescue Team is a strategy game where, rather than join as a member of a rescue team, you direct it using a click-based interface to do things like put out fires and help recover from recent disasters, then you move on to repairing buildings and bringing people back home.
A Simple Job?
Rescue Team is essentially defined by its simplicity: clicking around is the only way to do much of anything, and the game’s more “advanced” functions are also hidden behind click-based menus. In that sense, the game is as much a “clicker” game where progress is fluid and simple as it is a strategy game. This matches its cheery atmosphere despite its premise, with colourful graphics.
Rescued From Difficulty
Rescue Team doesn’t do a lot to support or encourage deep number crunching and micro-management. Its interface facilitates the game’s simplicity, and that means that hardcore gamers might enjoy it less than people just looking for an easy game where you can solve problems and be a hero in the face of disaster. Overall, Rescue Team is the game it promises to be, and that means that anyone looking for a feel-good, lengthy diversion from other parts of life will probably like it a lot.
