Emergency: Fighters for Life Image
  • Summary: Emergency 4 boasts a rich mix of gripping real-time strategy game and true-to-life simulation. The player becomes head of operations in a fictional rescue and catastrophe management organisation, in command of a number of vehicles and staff from the fire department, medical rescue, police and technical services. For the first time in the history of the Emergency series, all campaign missions are embedded into one continuous game set in a real town with a sheer infinite number of side-operations and tasks, so linking the various missions together. The player has to manage money as well as setting the right pre-requisites for upcoming missions. The player has to react to a variety of events, developing dynamically 24/7, set against a background of continuous day/night changes and constantly varying weather conditions. Expand

  1. A strategy game that provides more thrills and spills than most. [Issue#10, p.66]
  2. Emergency 4 is an exciting and funny game despite some technical problems. Gameplay is its strong point: it's really involving to see that your decisions make a difference between the life or death of dozens of people. Definitely a good game to buy.
  3. Emergency 4 brings variety to the strategy genre and will please those tired of the usual war or management games. It's true it has some flaws and maybe it is more focused to the more experienced players, but anyway it's quite an interesting proposal.
