Fire risk around the house — Firefighter & First Responder · Pretender
You visit a fictional house at the edge of a pine forest in summer. Sort what you see: raises fire risk, or helps protect the house.
🚨 This is a training game, not real emergency instructions. In a real emergency, get to safety, follow adults and call 112. Never go back into danger.
