Go take the day on one fireball at a time!

Phantasmal Force is a level 2 Illusion spell for Bard Sorcerer and Wizard. Casting Time is 1 action Range is 60 feet Requires a Verbal and Somatic component and ingredient for the spell is a bit of fleece. Duration is Concentration up to 1 minute.

You attempt to craft an illusion in the mind of a creature you can see within range. The target makes an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save you create a phantasmal object creature or other phenomenon that is no larger than a 10-foot Cube and that is perceivable only to the target for the duration. The phantasm includes sound temperature and other stimuli.

The target can take a Study action to examine the phantasm with an Investigation check against your spell save DC. If the check succeeds the target realizes that the phantasm is an illusion and the spell ends.

While affected by the spell the target treats the phantasm as if it were real and rationalizes any illogical outcomes from interacting with it. For example if the target steps through a phantasmal bridge and survives the fall it believes the bridge exists and something else caused it to fall.
