Frequently Asked Questions
Last updated: 14 August 2026
Short answers. If yours is not here, write to us and we will add it.
Is the game free?
Completely. No in-app purchases, no subscription. It is supported by ads.
Do I need an internet connection?
Not to play. Puzzles, the collection and free play all work offline. The connection is only used when an ad loads.
How many shadows are there?
Forty-five places across five shelves: Animals, Legends, Buildings, Nature and Objects. More arrive with updates.
What if I get stuck?
There is a hint button. It shows you where to look first, then where the pieces go. You never have to use it — nothing is timed and nothing is penalised.
Can I move my progress to another phone?
No. Your collection lives on that phone only; there is no cloud backup. Delete the app or change devices and you start again.
Which devices does it run on?
iPhones running iOS 15 or later. It is designed for portrait.
Can I share the photographs I take?
Yes, they are yours. The interface stays out of the frame — only the shadow on the wall is kept.
