User Summary Lava Cap is a puzzle game in which the player has a set amount of time to place channels on a grid in hopes of creating the longest path possible for the lava to flow from the starting volcano. Once the time is up, the lava flows along the shortest path created, adding points to the player's score as it travels. Channels that have not been connected are a points penalty, and a set number of points is required to advance to the next level.
