Official description

Original English source text provided by IGDB.

Candellum is a top down hack-and-slash where fire is everything. Trapped in a dormant wax factory crawling with hostile candle warriors, you must fight, think, and burn your way to the truth lurking in its darkest depths. In this world, fire means life. And life means death. You are a candle. A warrior. And you are always on the verge of melting away. Your candle can be lit, hitting harder, burning brighter, but draining your wax with every second. Or unlit, preserving what's left of you, at the cost of your power. Neither state is safe. Neither can be ignored. The twist? You throw your flame to switch states, and wherever it lands, it lands on an enemy. Ignite a foe to weaken them. Pull your flame back to slow your own decay. Every decision ripples across the battlefield.
