Inferno. Meltdown is a casual platformer with unique bowling-style physics where you control a robotic firefighter. This browser-based game challenges you to extinguish fires, known as Infernos, by launching water projectiles.
Using your mouse to aim and click to throw, you'll need to solve physics-based puzzles across various levels, making it a great fit for fans of arcade action and strategy.
Putting out fires in Inferno. Meltdown isn't as simple as spraying a hose. Instead, you launch water projectiles with a distinct arc, much like throwing a bowling ball.
You'll need to carefully aim your shots using the mouse, accounting for gravity and obstacles to hit your targets.
Each level provides a limited number of water shots, turning the experience into a puzzle. You can't just fire wildly; you must strategize to douse multiple flames with a single, well-placed shot or use ricochets off walls to reach hidden Infernos.
This isn't just a stationary puzzle game. You'll need to navigate your robotic firefighter across different platforms using standard controls to find the perfect vantage point. Sometimes the best shot isn't from where you start, so exploration is key to solving each level efficiently.
Adding to the challenge, many levels feature trapped cats that need rescuing. Getting to them and extinguishing nearby fires for a successful rescue adds another layer of strategy and contributes to your final score.
Prioritizing the cats often requires a different approach than simply clearing the fires.
You can play Inferno. Meltdown directly in your web browser with no downloads or installation required. As an HTML5 game, it's completely free and unblocked, making it easy to access on school or work networks for a quick firefighting session whenever you want.
Your goal in Inferno. Meltdown is to extinguish all the fires, called Infernos, on each level. You also need to rescue any trapped cats you find to maximize your score.
Use the WASD or arrow keys to move your robotic firefighter left and right across the platforms. Use the mouse to aim your water cannon; a trajectory line will show you where your shot will go.
Once you have your shot lined up, left click to launch a water projectile. You have a limited number of shots per level, so aim carefully. Clear all the Infernos to complete the stage and move on to the next challenge.
Bank Your Shots - Use walls, ceilings, and other surfaces to ricochet your water projectiles. This is essential for hitting fires that are blocked or out of direct reach. Prioritize Cat Rescues - Rescuing cats provides a major score boost.
Plan your shots to clear a path to them first before you run out of water. Conserve Your Ammo - You only get a few shots per level. Take a moment to line up a perfect throw that might extinguish multiple fires at once.
Reposition for a Better Angle - Don't be afraid to move your robot around. The starting position is rarely the best one for clearing the entire level.
Look for Chain Reactions - Sometimes dousing one fire will trigger an environmental change, like dropping a platform, that helps you reach others.
