fireboy and watergirl

Two elemental heroes navigate ancient temples in this beloved cooperative puzzle platformer. Fireboy and Watergirl challenges players to control both characters simultaneously or team up with a friend for split-control gameplay. Each character possesses unique elemental properties: the flame hero walks safely through lava pools while the water hero glides through blue puddles unharmed. Touching the wrong element spells instant failure, demanding careful coordination through trap-filled chambers. Since 2009, millions have enjoyed guiding this duo through switches, moving platforms, and gem-collecting adventures.
