About Neo Harbor Rescue Squad
The Rescue Squad has long lived in the shadow of the Neo Harbor City's prestigious Fire Department, but no more! As the team's new paramedic rookie, players must respond to emergencies throughout the city, deal with difficult patients, and protect the squad's reputation against the machinations of news reporter Betty Woo!
Players will use a bold, frantic triage system to juggle multiple waves of patients on each call, capturing the urgency, unpredictability, and critical decision-making required of the job in an accessible way. They'll manage several scenes at once and employ special shields to buy time to strategize, all while the clock is ticking.
Players will also have to master over 50 intense (and sometimes hilarious) treatment minigames to stabilize those patients and keep them from going critical — from performing CPR to stopping nosebleeds, wrapping bandages, using a defibrillator, and so much more!
Inspired by real paramedics in Hong Kong
The game takes real stories of emergency personnel, as told to the team, and spins them into an over-the-top, dramatic tale of teamwork and rivalry. Co-Founder Nancy Yeung took major inspiration from her hometown of Hong Kong for Neo Harbor City's vibrant locales — including dim sum shops, night markets, and even an amusement park beset by a typhoon.
Players will make impactful choices throughout the city's gorgeous visual novel scenes, which feature animated characters, expressive voices, and (of course) a smarmy talking dolphin!
