First off this is a brilliant game and it is not easy to take
a well known game and completely revise it.
This is what they have done here and what my advice would be is to not compare it with the other games . Imagine this is a brand new game and judge it on it's own merits.

First off this is a brilliant game and it is not easy to take

How many times do we see reviews stating same old, same old,

I for one completely enjoy the old games but they were getting
very predictable and a lot of time and effort has gone in to
totally remaking this game.

Next thing this game will take some time to get used to.
It is no good what so ever playing 10 minutes of the demo and saying you do not like it.
You need to persevere.

It took me quite some time to work out the ins and outs as
there is a lot to learn.

The game will open up as you proceed so straight away you need to get used to this.
I would recommend starting in relaxed to get the full benefit of the demo and to familiarise with the game.

There is a lot to learn but once you get more comfortable with this game it really starts to blossom.

An important thing to remember is to keep training your team.
If you find no missions available you will probably find you
need to train someone.

This is a long game and each level gets longer so although
it only has 25 levels, they are long once you get further in.

Although this has to be one of my most favorite tm's I am not
happy that it only has 5 extra levels.

I am hoping for further games that they increase the amount of extra levels for the CE.
Normally I would say wait for the SE with only 5 more levels
but I for one could not wait and I just had to accept only 5 levels extra.

There will be some who prefer the old game but it did need revamping and
once you are used to it I think you will like it.

Try the demo but please do not give up after 10 mins, you need as much demo
time as possible to get used to it. Show less

I recommend this game!

I have every Rescue Team ever made. I replay them all a lot. This takes things to a whole new level. It must have been an enormous amount of work to design this game. Little by little I am learning the ropes and it is intense! Love, Love, Love!

Be patient with yourself and enjoy learning how to play. The levels are long and interesting.

I recommend this game!

The work that has gone into this changing the format must be congratulated, everyone asks for something different from the previous game from all the developers and we certainly got it this time!
I really hope they continue to make games like this Show less

This version of the game is more like a strategy building game with a touch of time Management.

This version of the game is more like a strategy building game with a touch of time Management.

You have a Main Base where you construct buildings and add decor to the town. The buildings allow you to progress in missions you take. For example, building a fire house allows you to train specialists like a fireman. You have a skill tree, a research tab, and a vehicle tab, which are all part of completing more missions via the Map tab.

Once you've started a mission, you'll have your objective tiles on bottom of your screen. Some objectives will have a time element, such as build a firehouse in 5:00 minutes. There are also a number of gold stars at the top of an objective tile that goes hand in hand with the timer. Go over the allotted time and you lose a star, and a new timer starts, and so on. It doesn't prevent you from completing the mission; however, it can determine if you complete a mission with 5 stars or less, or 100% or less completed. The percentage complete is noted in the Map tab under the archive button. It allows you to replay the missions to improve yourself to earn more money. The better your score, the more money you make. Money is used to train specialists and buy decor for the main base.

The other tabs at the bottom of your mission screen are easily identifiable with icons such as:

- Crane: to construct buildings
- Person: to train reinforcements (rescuers)
- Wrecking Ball: to demolish a building
- Cash Register: to purchase items, such as a rope used to climb and reach resources on the map
- Checklist: to view all objectives for the mission

All your buildings are built on designated squares and are tied to a power plant in order to work. For example, in a grid of four squares, you can have a power plant, a burger joint, bank, and a sawmill. When placing a power plant, you'll see what squares it powers with a green highlight over the grid. This is helpful in determining where to place a power plant. As you discover more of the map you'll come across new grids, where you'll add a new power plant and additional buildings that you'll need to complete your mission. Heavy on food but short on cash? - build a second bank. The choice is yours as you determine the resources you need most as you progress. You can always demolish a building to build something different. You'll get your initial building materials back when demolishing.

Because it's not your typical timer bar winding down type of TM game, it allows you more wiggle room to find your flow and have fun building and moving along, discovering new things. You just need to allow a few missions to really get a good understanding of what you're doing.

Also, if you hit the escape button to pause the game, the pause screen has a guide and a help button. The help button is really useful to explain the building types and how they work, what they do, mission guides, character info, etc.

If you're not open to any kind of change then this is likely not for you since it's not typical and not super easy. It's fun and challenging and I really like this version of the game. Show less

Based on the demo only, I love this overhaul. Takes a while to get used to, but so far it's great. Buying it now to see where it goes. Loved the originals as well - think of this as a different game series all together and give it a try!

As others say, this requires study when you start. The world is Rescue Team, but the play resembles the Adelantado Trilogy with the requirement to move to different areas within the level. Tasks of building, clearing, and gathering are familiar, but you don't have to send someone every time a building's production is ready. Some tasks have a time limit to complete multiple acts.

Tasks of building, clearing, and gathering are familiar, but you don't have to send someone every time a building's production is ready. Some tasks have a time limit to complete multiple acts. Clicking on the tasks icons shows you where on the map those items are. I've played three or four levels and achieved maximum stars, but had to replay a couple to get production set up right. I've been looking for something like Adelantado's non-fixed map and this is it. More, please! Show less
