The entire tone of this game feels depressing as hell. You drive a fire truck making these very drastic turns and trying not to hit any curves or hitting objects that can end up reducing the amount of gas you have. I don't know if you're driving to stop a fire or not since the game isn't clear on that, since you're just driving and maybe I suck at the game so thats why.

But honestly this game is just a driving game that is very boring and basic with tight turns, and the game essentially ends when you run out of gas.

So Fire Truck (1978) isn't that fire, if anything it's pretty burnt.

Played on Atari 50.
