Heavily influenced by chess problems, Trees On Fire is a turn-based puzzle-strategy game in which each level tasks the player with halting the growth of a wildfire. The fire grows according to a cellular automaton pattern while the player arranges fire-fighting units in such a way that the fire dies out before it destroys any more of the surrounding area.
