Out at midnight: Fire ladders at the right time to climb a burning building in Pyro Pursuit

Pyro Pursuit, the endless climber that I enjoyed taking a look at a few weeks ago, will be out for iOS at midnight.

The firemen and women of Pyro Pursuit are doomed to cruel eternity. They must climb an endless burning building, rescuing cats and fleeing from the rising flames below.

It's a game of timing. Upon each level, the fire truck aims a ladder across the breadth of the building. You have to tap the screen to make it stop aiming and fire the ladder, which your fireman will then climb up.

It's not just a case of being accurate. You have to watch out for crumbling floors and burning birds. There are also power-ups that you'll want to collect, such as the cats that make you move faster.

There are also coins to collect that can be spent on a number of upgrades and customisation options. You can purchase more coins for real money in the store, if you so wish.

As it's a free-to-play iOS game, Pyro Pursuit may be worth checking out to see if it grabs your attention after it arrives on the App Store at midnight.

It will also be on Android, very soon.
