Kill It with Fire

Kill It with Fire (stylised as KILL IT WITH FIRE) is a 2020 simulation video game developed by Casey Donnellan Games and published by TinyBuild. The player controls an exterminator, who must eliminate a spider infestation in a town using a wide arsenal of weaponry. The game received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the game's premise and art direction, but critiqued the controls and length.

Gameplay

The game is similar to a first-person shooter. The player controls an exterminator, who needs to eliminate every spider hidden throughout 9 levels. Each level has a set number of spiders hidden underneath objects with certain areas of the level and the level's exit blocked by doors requiring a certain number of spiders be killed. The player starts with a clipboard as a weapon, but can find additional weapons hidden throughout the game, including shotguns, molotov cocktails, a frying pan and throwing stars. Each level additionally has optional objectives, some of which are unrelated to killing spiders; the objectives reward the player with upgrades between levels. Completing every objective in a level unlocks "Spider gauntlets", additional challenges which alter the game's final level. Throughout the game different types of spiders are present, such as explosive spiders, spiders that spawn smaller ones upon death and spiders that shoot webbing at the player's screen.
