Om spillet

Hot Wax is a falling-block puzzle game where you place candles and then light them up to create slowly-unfolding chain reactions in a gloomy temple built to some unholy creature.

Play in six different gamemodes:

In Ritual reach a set score to summon the temple's god.
In Penance clear a growing number of candle blocks in as few turns as possible
In Eternal play until the board fills up.
In Glory place a number of candles then burn as many as you can with just one flame.
In Slow-Burn train to mastery while the speed stays constant.
And in Service, play a new challenge every day and compete against the rest of the world.

Each of the first 4 gamemodes has 3 different difficulties. All the gamemodes contribute towards unlocking the 30 colour palettes available in the game.

A run typically lasts a couple of minutes. The game can be played with either a keyboard or with a game controller.
