How to Play Rescue Heroes Rescue Pets

The pet hospital is going up in smoke. The flames are hot and the smoke is making it hard to see. You have to help save the pets! In this board game you become one of four rescue heroes saving the pets and trying to avoid the ropes which move you back down the building. Hopefully you get to one of the ladders instead so you can reach the helicopter faster than everyone else.
