Matchbox: Emergency Patrol Overview
Matchbox: Emergency Patrol is a driving adventure title for children set within a city composed of five distinct districts. These areas are linked by a freeway network, forming the environment where players operate fire engines and police cars to safeguard the city's inhabitants.
