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.
