About Fireboy and Watergirl Game
Fireboy and Watergirl is a cooperative puzzle platformer about getting two different characters through a temple together. Fireboy and Watergirl can handle their own matching elemental pools, but the wrong pool is dangerous and green hazards threaten both. Switches, doors and moving platforms often require one character to help the other before either can leave.
You can share the keyboard with a friend or move both characters yourself. The puzzles work best when you stop to plan who needs to hold a switch and who needs to cross first. Racing one character ahead can leave the other with no route, so progress is measured by getting both heroes safely to their exits.
