Tatü-Tata,

die Feuerwehr ist da!

Fire fighting operation with five crew members, but unfortunately two have overslept and miss the operation! Each player has one fire engine with beacon - a tile with a hole for a blue piece - and site cards for hydrant, fire station and fire. Ten Slow Burner cards are laid out in four stacks with 4-3-2-1 cards.

In four rounds, all play simultaneously and each of the four rounds comprises a set-up phase and an operation phase. In the set-up phase the top operation card is turned over and all place their fire, their station and - depending on the version you play - one or two hydrants in the arrangement given by the operation card. The active Slow Burner card always shows the two crew members who overslept and must stay behind. All players put their remaining three crew members onto their car and begin to drive, starting point is the fire station. The car card may only be moved by placing one finger on the beacon to move it along. If you lose a crew member on the way, you stop the car, put the crew member back on and resume driving. Whoever places his car with all three crew men correctly next to fire and hydrant, hits the Slow Burner card with his hand and calls “Fire out!”. He wins the Slow Burner card. When one stack of Slow Burner card is empty, a new operation card is revealed for a new round and hydrant, fire and station are re-arranged. When all Slow Burner cards are taken after four rounds, you win with most of them.

This game demands dexterity and controlled and planned use of movement, if you are too fast, the crew slides off the car! Lots of fun to play and good practice for hand-eye-coordination.
