Where Shadows Slumber for Pc

But released a little too early. The game itself was very fun to play and challenged your intuition constantly; all the puzzles were well balanced, the art style was beautiful, and the storyline was mysterious and strange. There were, however, some technical issues that took a lot away from my enjoyment of the game. Leaving the app for a second to answer a text requires you to restart the level you’re on when you return; tapping too early to start a level freezes the game until you restart the app; and I had to restart the app 3 separate times to view the ending scenes with any audio. These issues pulled me out of the game’s universe entirely and will hopefully be fixed very soon. EDIT: I am happy to see the developers are still working hard to fix some of the bugs I had experienced with the game. Keep it up!

this app is an excellent story-driven puzzle game. It appears to be heavily inspired by monument valley, and uses many of the same switch-flipping and block-moving mechanics, but with shadows cast by lanterns changing the planes of existence instead of optical illusions. I finished the game in two days. The story is eerie and moving, and almost shockingly violent, with fully animated cut scenes and anguished cries from the protagonist. Each new area is aesthetically pleasing and very distinct, with different color palettes and NPCs. This makes the game feel a bit disjointed but keeps it interesting. Unfortunately the complete lack of words in the dialogue makes certain parts confusing (what happens at the summit?), and the end feels like a cliffhanger. While most of the levels are fun and well designed, there are a handful of bugs that forced me to reset some of levels a few times, especially during the hill section. More than once, the graves dancing in shadow wouldn’t line up with the app the grave was in light, resulting in graves Obe could walk over and invisible walls blocking his path. The final level is also a bit of a chore. The puzzle itself is creative and interesting, but one the player finds the solution, the distance Obe must walk to actually line up all of the pieces becomes frustrating. Overall, a great game. Wish it were longer. 4/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✖️

This is a great puzzler using the mechanics of light and perspective. It’s sort of a blend of Monument Valley and a light/shadow game from a few years ago who’s name I can’t recall off hand. Beautiful art and animation gives it a serious touch of mood and a very creepy vibe. Surprisingly violent in a cartoonish way. Overall a great buy, though I’m not sure of the length of the game yet. One star off for the controls feeling a little rough but that may just be the newness of the game. If I get used to it or it’s patched I’ll revise it to 5 stars. I’ve been needing a good puzzle fix and this does the trick. EDIT Controls feel much better now so it’s up to 5. Good length for the price and outstanding overall.

I feel like a complete idiot playing this game. I’m at a level now that I just stare at because I’ve tried everything I can think of. I honestly can’t play anymore without some kind of direction. I’m not far in, River 3 or close to it. I’ve restarted it a number of times, tried everything I can think of. I did not buy this to stare at it and I am not stupid, but this game sure makes me feel stupid. Thanks. I finally got past that level, and yes, it was the stupid tree. I was ready to toss my iPad. I’m pretty far past that now, so I’ll give you another star, and then we’ll see when I’m done if you get more. Thanks for caring! Ok, just finished. I’m slow, but I finished. I gave another star because it is such a challenge. No hints or tricks, you just stay the app you are until you figure it out. Not a game for wussies. I feel like I actually accomplished something, thanks for the fun.
