About

ShadowGrid

Features
Read full description

Shadow Grid is a calm, satisfying 3D puzzle: stack and rotate simple blocks on a grid until the shadows they cast on two walls match the target silhouette exactly. - 200 handcrafted levels, from a gentle two-piece start to real spatial-reasoning challenges. - A separate 100-level Pro pack for players who want a tougher challenge - bigger grids, more pieces, and blocks that sit at different heights so the shadows overlap in ways you can't just read off the floor. - Drag pieces along the floor and tap to rotate - no timers, no penalties, just figure it out at your own pace. - Global leaderboard: pick a username and an avatar, and see how your progress compares to other players. - Five visual skins to re-color your blocks, from a classic monochrome look to warmer palettes. - Reset any level instantly and try again as many times as you like. No sign-up required - just open the app and start stacking. An optional one-time purchase removes ads entirely.

You are presented with a small sculpture made of colored cubes. You may study it, and take as long as you want. You will build it, not by stacking cubes, but by drawing its floor plans. You'll draw each level flat, like an architect would. Earn stars based on the number of drafts you take to match the model. Three stars for a one-shot solution! Stars unlock new chapters, each with its own puzzles and palette. In the final chapter, Castle, you build twelve separate pieces that assemble into a single fortress. Made by puzzle lovers! Plays offline. Always free. And no timers, ads, or accounts.
