Ordinary shapes can transform into something completely unexpected when the angle and lighting are just right. Every puzzle hides something waiting to be discovered. PLAY WITH LIGHT Move the light and experiment with the shadows created by the objects around you. Sometimes a tiny adjustment is all it takes to reveal the hidden shape. DISCOVER HIDDEN FIGURES Look closely at the silhouette and discover what is hiding inside it. From animals and legendary creatures to nature, structures and mysterious objects, there are many different shapes waiting to be found. BUILD YOUR COLLECTION Every discovery becomes part of your collection. Explore different categories and try to complete them all. Animals. Legends. Nature. Objects.
