About Fireboy and Watergirl 1: Forest Temple
Fireboy and Watergirl 1: Forest Temple is a two-character puzzle platformer set in a temple with elemental hazards. Fireboy cannot touch green acid or water; Watergirl cannot touch fire or orange lava.
Both must reach their colored doors in the same level to progress.
How to Play Fireboy and Watergirl 1: Forest Temple
Switch control between Fireboy and Watergirl — or play co-op with two people — to flip switches, push boxes, and ride lifts. Green pools kill both characters.
Some puzzles require one character to hold a button while the other passes. Timing matters on moving platforms and sliding gates.
Collect optional gems for score, but exits unlock as soon as both stand on their doors simultaneously.
