About Fireboy & Watergirl 7: and Friends
Fireboy & Watergirl 7: and Friends is a free online co-op platformer playable directly in your browser with no download required. The seventh entry in the beloved Fireboy and Watergirl series introduces three brand-new companion characters who join the iconic duo on their most ambitious temple adventure yet. Across 36 hand-crafted levels packed with pressure plates, levers, seesaws, and deadly traps, you must coordinate up to five characters at once to collect every diamond and reach the exit doors. Whether you tackle the challenge solo or team up with a friend in local two-player mode, Fireboy & Watergirl 7 delivers the same clever puzzle design the series is famous for — now with even more moving parts.
The game is developed and published by Septimaniac and runs fully in-browser on both desktop and mobile (iOS and Android). It supports seven languages — Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish — making it one of the most accessible entries in the series for a global audience.

Meet the New Friends
The headline addition in Fireboy & Watergirl 7 is the trio of new companion characters controlled with the G, Y, and J keys. These friends are not just decorative — they are essential to completing many levels. Their size and weight directly affect physics puzzles: the rotund blue friend is heavy enough to tip a seesaw that neither Fireboy nor Watergirl could balance alone. Mastering the timing of when to move each character, and which combination of characters is needed on a given platform or switch, is the core strategic challenge that sets this entry apart from earlier games in the series.
Puzzle Mechanics
Each of the 36 levels is built around the series' signature environmental hazards. Levers and buttons open gates and move platforms, but often require more than one character to activate simultaneously. Seesaws introduce weight-based physics that demand precise positioning. Spike traps and elemental hazards — fire for Watergirl, water for Fireboy — remain instant death, keeping every step deliberate. Diamonds scattered throughout each stage serve as the secondary objective: collect them all while beating the level timer for a perfect score.
Solo and 2-Player Co-op
Fireboy & Watergirl 7 supports both single-player and local two-player co-op on the same keyboard. In solo mode, you switch between characters as needed and plan your movements carefully. In co-op, each player takes one half of the controls, making communication and coordination just as important as puzzle-solving skill. With five characters potentially on screen at once, two-player sessions reward teamwork in a way few browser games can match.
How to Get a Perfect Score
- Plan before you move — Scan the level to identify which characters are needed on which platforms or switches before committing.
- Collect every diamond — Diamonds must be grabbed by the correct character or companion; check colours and proximity before moving on.
- Beat the timer — Each level is timed. A faster completion combined with a full diamond haul earns the top rating.
- Use the Friends strategically — Heavy companions can activate weight-sensitive seesaws and pressure plates that Fireboy and Watergirl cannot trigger alone.
- Reach both exit doors — Fireboy must enter the red door and Watergirl the blue door simultaneously (or close enough) to complete each level.
