So for instance if the phrase says “Wooden Block Combo”, you look through your catalogs and purchase the various types of wooden blocks you’ve unlocked, set them in the fireplace and burn them to see if you’ve appeased Little Inferno’s designers. This basically requires you to read a short phrase and then look through your catalog to see which pair or set of items it describes. To unlock new catalogs brimming with precious objects to set aflame, you have to figure out which objects you need to burn together to satisfy preset criteria. This is where the combo system steps in to breathe new life into the flames. But like eating one slice of pie too many, each new item you toss into the always-hungry maw of fire yields diminishing returns the rush of destruction becomes pedestrian. Learning the ignition point of each item, seeing how some of them react to being burnt, even just watching the flames rise and fall before dying feels good. Once they arrive you burn them, watch as the fire realistically lights and eventually breaks each item into ashes that a draft sweeps up into the night.Įverything must burn.At first, setting things alight is enough. The only thing you can do is order a random assortment of items and watch as countdown timers tick down before the packages containing your items arrive. Your character’s life revolves around the fireplace he sits in front of. This mentality drives the gameplay of Little Inferno. It’s fun to see something change, to watch as it turns from order into ash. Just like our ancestors have done for millennium, it’s easy to sit before a flame and lose yourself in the way it dances across the surface of whatever it’s destroying. The number in parenthesis next to the item’s name corresponds to the catalog in which it can be bought.There’s still something entrancing, if not magical, about fire. With 140 items to acquire and 99 different combos to discover, you’ll need all the help you can get.

The game provides hints as to what you should mix and match, but since pyromaniacs lack patience, we’ve made a list of every possible fiery combination divided between seven pages, one for each catalog.
