Shadow Walker 3D
A 3D diorama puzzle game where you walk only in the shade to reach the goal
FAQ
How to play
Drag the round control pad at the bottom of the screen to walk that way, and lift your finger to stop. Sunlight drains your HP; rest in the shade for a moment and it comes back. Reach the goal doorway before the sun gets to the end of the clock. The clock doesn't start until you take your first step, so you can plan your route first. On iPad you can also use a keyboard (arrow keys or WASD) or a game controller.
I can't clear a stage
Shadows change direction and length as the sun moves. If you can't get through, wait in the shade for a few seconds. Trams and windmill sails cast moving shadows too. Inside the marked circles around the start and the goal, you're always safe. The start time shifts a little every time you play, so the shadows are different when you try again.
I can't get three stars
Three stars means clearing the stage without ever stepping into the sun. Take your time and wait for the shadows to connect. Two stars means clearing with 50 HP or more.
Turning and zooming the diorama
Drag the diorama to turn and tilt it. Pinch to zoom in on your character, and double-tap or tap the compass button to reset the view. Tall buildings turn see-through when they hide you.
Choppy motion or a warm device
The app draws a 3D scene, so motion may be less smooth on older devices or in Low Power Mode. Closing other apps can help.
There's no sound
The App is silent while your device's Ring/Silent switch is set to silent. You can change the volume in Settings → Sound & Haptics. It plays alongside your music.
Where are my records (stars and best times) saved?
Only on your device. They move to a new device when you restore it from an iPhone backup. Deleting the App deletes them. You can also start over with Settings → Reset Records.
Removing ads
Go to Settings → Remove Ads (one-time purchase). On a new device, use Restore Purchase on the same screen. Full-screen ads only appear before a stage starts.
