Please find below a whole host of questions asked and answered to provide you with the information you might need to enjoy or better understand Embr, Technical Issues/Questions or more.


ABOUT THE GAME

What is Embr?
Embr is a multiplayer focused fire-fighting game that is both frantic and fun. Team up with friends to become the most über firefighters money can buy. Rush into burning buildings filled with dangerous hazards, valuables, and top-of-the-line security systems. Fight fires, save lives, salvage goods, and make life-changing money. Buy high tech tools with advanced upgrades, and fresh outfits that unlock new ways to play.
There’s plenty of fire to go around! Play by yourself or join a response crew of up to 4 players online, with dynamic difficulty that adapts to the size of your team. Play through 25 unique levels across 3 districts filled with traps, hazards, and escalating danger.
There’s more than one way to be a hero. Break down doors, smash windows, fix electrical circuits, clear gas leaks, evade security systems, and do whatever you can to get the job done and get paid. Earn five star ratings to attract the attention of wealthy customers. And if you’re short on cash, try snatching a few valuables while the clients aren’t looking.
Embr will keep you coming back for more with new mission types, daily and weekly challenges, and plenty of achievements to hunt.

What game modes are in Embr?
Embr features a full campaign that you can play with up to three other friends, or by yourself. This game mode is the core of the Embr experience, allowing you to access a whole host of optional side-gigs such as EmbrEats, Box Box Delivery, Salvage, Demolition and more.

How long is Embr?
While it is hard to give a concrete number due to the varieties of systems and mechanics we’ve added to the games throughout the early access period, we imagine that if someone was playing to 5* every level, upgrade their equipment and experience all we have to offer; 20-25 hours would be a good metric.

Who are Muse Games?
We’re Muse Games, an independent game development studio in NYC. We focus on boundary pushing co-op gameplay and AI, with the aim of bringing people closer together through games. We are the team behind the award-winning and best-selling Guns of Icarus series on Steam and PS4 that features team-based multiplayer airship combat set in a post-apocalyptic, steam/dieselpunk-inspired world. Other projects include the award-winning and App Store top selling Hamsterdam and CreaVures. Our upcoming project is the irreverent, frantic, co-op, firefighting (un)simulator Embr, where you get to save lives and get paid in a hyper-capitalist alt-present, where firefighting funding has run dry, and venture capitalism and e-hailing rule the roost.

Would it be possible to make it so that each higher tier vehicle can have more upgrades with the final vehicle being able to hold water medkits and extra storage?
