Fireboy and Watergirl 6: Fairy Tales is a cooperative puzzle-platform game that introduces magical fairies to the series. Guide Fireboy and Watergirl through temple levels filled with switches, doors, platforms, colored diamonds, and elemental hazards.
The fairies are the main new feature in this adventure. Drag them with your mouse to activate matching lamps and control mechanisms that the two characters cannot reach on their own. You can control both characters by yourself or share the keyboard with another player as you work through all 30 levels.
How to Play
Your goal is to guide Fireboy to the red exit door and Watergirl to the blue exit door. Both characters must reach the correct door to complete the level.
Fireboy can safely move through fire, but he must avoid water. Watergirl can move through water, but she must avoid fire. Both characters must stay away from green liquid. Collect red diamonds with Fireboy and blue diamonds with Watergirl as you explore each level.
Use the fairies to activate lamps, switches, platforms, doors, and other mechanisms. Drag each fairy toward a matching object and watch how the level changes. Some puzzles require you to move a fairy while controlling Fireboy or Watergirl, so timing and coordination are essential.
Controls
- Fireboy: Use the left and right arrow keys to move and the up arrow key to jump.
