Fireboy & Watergirl 2: Forest Temple is the first cooperative puzzle-platformer in the beloved series, originally launched in November 2009 (Flash) and remastered in HTML5 in May 2018 .

🏰 Game Overview

Setting & Levels: Explore a mystical Forest Temple across 32 levels including:

17 standard puzzle levels

6 simultaneous-control levels (both characters move together)

9 “green diamond” levels requiring you to grab a single green gem.

Core Mechanics:

Control Fireboy (arrow keys) and Watergirl (WASD) either solo or with a friend for local co-op.

Fireboy can walk through lava (red pools) but dies in water; Watergirl can walk through water (blue pools) but dies in lava. Green sludge is lethal to both.

Puzzle Gameplay

• Colour-coded gems: Fireboy collects red gems, Watergirl collects blue gems, and green gems can be picked up by either.

• Interactive elements include buttons, levers, pulleys, elevators, seesaws, movable boxes, and doors. Often one player holds a button while the other proceeds, demanding precise coordination.
• Simultaneous levels require controlling both characters in sync, adding a layer of challenge.

🎯 Strategy & Goals

To advance each level, both characters must reach their respective exits—marked with matching colored doors—while optionally collecting gems for higher ratings.

Fast, gem-filled completions earn top rankings (e.g., finish under 1 minute with all gems).

🎮 Platforms & Controls

Desktop browser (HTML5, mobile-enabled).

Mobile versions on Android and iOS, though sometimes with ads and minor bugs.

Controls:

Fireboy:

Arrow keys

Watergirl:

WASD

Both characters share lives and must survive to finish.

✅ final take:

Fireboy & Watergirl 2: Forest Temple is a cooperative logic-platformer featuring dual-character control through 32 puzzle-filled levels. Navigate elemental hazards, activate mechanisms, collect gems, and work together to finish each stage. It’s the perfect mix of challenge, charm, and collaborative fun.
