Gameplay

Emergency Heroes is a driving game. The vehicles are fundamental to gameplay, and every mission requires a range of driving abilities provided by that vehicle. For example, the Rescue Buggies are centered on making jumps, while police perform much chasing. Players drive 12 different variations of rescue vehicles as either; Police Pursuit, Police Road Clearance, Firefighter or Rescuer (the other 3 being criminal vehicles) and navigate through the streets of San Alto, keeping citizens safe along the way. The game also features a two player mode for two players.

Story

As a first responder in the game, you have the obligation to participate in any police, firefighter and EMS to serve anybody in an open world environment. You also get in the footsteps of any emergency crews like Zach Harper while working for the chief Captain Walters. At the same time you've also got to participate in a series of missions that are assigned to your crew members, and you're expected to complete them. By then, your skills as well as your integrity will matter for all of your team that you'll be working with. So you will be the hero of your emergency team as well as the city.

Reception

Emergency Heroes was met with negative reception upon release, as GameRankings gave it a score of 45%,[3] while Metacritic gave it 41 out of 100.[4]
