Is It Any Good?

The concept behind the puzzle play in HELSING'S FIRE is brilliant. Each level provides you with a different layout of monsters and obstacles; you need to strategically place your torch so that its light will be cast upon all the monsters -- then you use your potion to zap any baddies within your torchlight. As the game gets harder, you'll get different color monsters that must be grouped together as you light them without lighting foes of other colors. It's a truly new and different type of puzzle game -- and an addictively fun one, at that. Plus the humorous storyline and dialogue keep you entertained between levels. It is from the makers of the very popular Angry Birds.
