About the game

Wax Heads is a cozy-punk narrative sim about working in a struggling record store. Chat to quirky customers with unique tastes, explore a handcrafted record collection, fall in love with bands (and their drama!), or just slack off with your colleagues - whatever gets everyone’s groove back!

    This feels more like an interactive story than a video game. The player’s involvement is minimal, as most of the experience centers on reading through dialogue.

    This game is a true work of art and worth every penny. You can tell a lot of love went into making it. It's an all-time favorite of mine now. The soundtrack is also awesome.
