Coming from a firefighter family, this one just felt like home. With all the water hose jetpacks and throwing people out windows.

Playing in co-op was a joy the whole way through. The grind to 100% is fairly daunting - expect lots of money grinding, even after accomplishing every objective in every level.

I would have liked to see different fire-related threats. Your only main adversaries are proper fire and gas fires. A wildfire level could have been intense. Or perhaps grappling with chemical fires? Additionally, different strengths of fire would have added more interesting encounters - such as blue fire to indicate a more challenging opponent.

Despite the simplicity of the game mechanics, the levels stay relatively fresh and interesting. And as you progress in your equipment proficiency, new strategies present themselves every run.

If possible, I highly recommend playing the game in co-op. I feel like something is lost tackling this one alone.
