The game received generally positive reviews, earning praise for its story, characters, dialogue, and visual style. The design draws inspiration from New Deal advertisements by the National Park Service and field research conducted in Yosemite National Park. The game's environment was modelled by Ng, based on a single painting by Moss. The game was directed by Olly Moss and Sean Vanaman, written by Chris Remo, Jake Rodkin, Moss and Vanaman, and produced by Gabe McGill and artist Jane Ng.
His exchanges with Delilah inform the process by which their relationship is developed. Henry interacts with Delilah using a walkie-talkie, with the player choosing from dialog options to communicate. A month after his first day at work, strange things begin happening to him and his supervisor Delilah, which connects to a conspired mystery that happened years ago. The story follows a fire lookout named Henry in the Shoshone National Forest, a year after the Yellowstone fires of 1988. The game was released in February 2016 for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, and PlayStation 4, for Xbox One in September 2016, and for Nintendo Switch in December 2018.

"If you just want something to put up on your wall, you can do that too."
"If you play games with someone next to you on the couch, print this out and hand it to them, and your formerly disinterested couch-sharer is magically transformed into an officially engrossed Firewatch Navigator And Map Scribbler," said Jake Rodkin on the Campo Santo Blog. More importantly, it offers a new co-operative way to play Firewatch as one person can assume the role of a navigator in another's game. You can even scribble your own notes instead of relying on the ones player character Henry jots down. Now you can navigate your way through the Wyoming wilderness without awkwardly fiddling with analogue sticks and all the cumbersome zooming and panning that they entail. But if you really want to immerse yourself in Firewatch's navigational challenges, Campo Santo has unveiled an even better option by releasing files for printable maps.
As such, many opted to disable this feature for a more immersive experience. This convenient waypoint system works well for most video games, but Firewatch is about feeling lost as you navigate Campo Santo's gorgeous scenery using only your compass, wits, and sense of direction. One of Firewatch's most divisive design decisions was whether to reveal the player's location on the in-game map.
