Play Hose Hero online
Hose Hero is an original firefighting arcade game: you are the firefighter under a burning apartment block, moving a hose nozzle from window to window.
Fires flare up in the block's windows and keep heating up while they burn. Aim the nozzle under a fire and hold the spray to cool it down until it goes out.
Water is limited: the tank drains while you spray and refills while you pause, so every burst is a decision about which fire matters most.
Put out 12 fires before the 120-second timer runs out. Chain fires within 4 seconds for a combo bonus up to 5x, but lose 3 fires to burnout and the building is lost.
How to control Hose Hero

Tips for a better run
Chase the hottest fire first — the number above each flame is its heat, and 100 means it burns out.
Spray in short bursts: the tank refills fast when you stop, and travelling between windows refills it for free.
Stand still only when the nozzle is lined up; spraying a neighbouring window wastes water and lets the real fire grow.
Chain two quick put-outs for double points, but never chase a combo into letting a third fire burn out.
When three fires are up at once, pick the one closest to 100 and accept that the coolest one can wait a few seconds.
