Have you heard of Candy Crush? Yeah? Of course you have. This has some similarities with Candy Crush, where you must match at least three, and you get power-ups to help complete the level. Unlike Candy Crush, you are drawing a line among “wildfire causes” such as charcoal briquettes, matches, and lighters – if you can draw the line to it via a square adjacent then it counts to remove the source. As you progress through the levels, they get harder or introduce new mechanics.

While helping Smokey remove fire sources, you can tap on Cecile, the local historian, to learn facts about wildfire; and you can tap on Daren, the local firefighter, to help spot the hot. Piper, the scout leader, gives out periodic challenges if you tap on them.

Oh, and some other majorly cool differences from Candy Crush? You don’t have to pay to play or wait/ask for lives! Give it a shot, or even better let your kids try – and learn in the process!
