Okay, so Fisher-Price: Firehouse Rescue is one of those weird licensed NES games that makes you go, "Wait, this exists?" It's exactly what it sounds like—a Fisher-Price toy line turned into a side-scroller where you play as a little firefighter rescuing people (or maybe stuffed animals?) from burning buildings.
The controls are… well, they feel like an NES game aimed at toddlers, so don’t expect tight platforming. You just run left and right, climb ladders, and spray water at fires with a hose that has all the precision of a garden sprinkler. The music is cheerful in that aggressively simple 8-bit way, like someone turned a nursery rhyme into chiptune.
Honestly, it’s more of a novelty than anything—probably fun for a five-minute laugh if you’re into retro oddities. I wouldn’t call it a hidden gem, but it’s definitely a weird little time capsule of '90s toy marketing.
