About

ShadowPath

Features
Read full description

ShadowPath is a fresh logic puzzle where you read outside numbers, place hidden blocks, and connect every shadow into one clean path. Each clue tells you how many empty cells appear before the first block from that side. Use the numbers to find the blocks, guide the shadow through yellow cells, avoid grey cells, and complete a single connected route. It is simple to start, but the logic gets deeper with every puzzle. If you enjoy Sudoku, number puzzles, nonograms, brain games, or calm daily logic challenges, ShadowPath gives you a new kind of puzzle to read and solve. Features: • Read outside clues to find hidden blocks • Connect all shadows into one clean path • Yellow cells must be passed through • Grey cells must be avoided • Learn, Daily, Classic, Challenge, and Expert levels • Short puzzles for quick focus • Deeper puzzles for serious logic fans • No guessing required when the logic clicks Read the numbers. Place the blocks. Connect the shadows. For Sudoku fans who want something new, ShadowPath is a quiet, satisfying logic puzzle that rewards careful thinking.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: ShadowPath at none against NutLine's shown. ShadowPath also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 10 months). NutLine's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
