How it feels
A poetic, dream-like puzzle journey where you switch between 2D and 3D to guide a girl and her shadow through surreal, watercolor landscapes.

What players say
Players praise the creative shadow-switching puzzles and how the 3D/2D interplay constantly evolves. The game is short and forgiving, with checkpoints that let you undo mistakes. Reviews are split on the story, some call it emotionally deep, others find it vague and pretentious, and several dislike the narrator and voice acting.
