A Wild West Where Fire Changes Everything
Drop into a handcrafted frontier town. Three factions are already at war.
You're just there to get paid — and maybe burn a few things down.
How You Play Is Up To You
Go Ghost — Complete heists without a single witness. Let the
Sheriff and Bandits fight it out while you walk away clean.
Start a Fire — Tumblefire's signature mechanic. Fire spreads
realistically through wooden buildings, changes sightlines, creates
diversions, and sometimes gets wildly out of control.
Play the Factions — Sheriff's Department, Bandits, and Citizens
all have their own agendas. Learn their patterns. Exploit their conflicts.
Rob the bank during a gunfight you started.
Bring a Friend — Drop-in co-op for one friend via Steam.
Two outlaws, twice the chaos.
