Shadow Matching
Rotate a 3D block sculpture until its shadow covers the dotted outline on the wall. Reach a 90 percent match to clear each level before the timer runs out.
Shadow Matching is a 3D spatial puzzle set in a warm paper shadow theater. On the left sits a sculpture made of wooden blocks; on the right, a lamp throws its shadow onto a wall marked with a dotted target shape. Turn the sculpture in three directions until your shadow lines up with the outline, and a live meter shows how close you are.
Drag to spin the object left, right, up and down, and use the roll buttons or Q and E to twist it. When the match reaches 90 percent, hold it for a moment and the level clears, adding 25 seconds to the clock and points for the time left and for any extra accuracy. Every level builds a new random sculpture, and from the third level on more blocks are added, so the silhouettes get trickier and easy guesses stop working.
This rotation puzzle is a calm but focused brain teaser for fans of spatial reasoning and visual logic. It works with a mouse, keyboard or touch, on desktop or phone. Tip: line up the overall direction of the shadow with a drag first, then use roll to fine-tune the angle, since small twists make a big difference near the end.
How to play
Rotate the 3D object so its shadow covers the dotted shape on the wall. Drag to turn it and use Q / E or the roll buttons to twist it. When the match meter reaches 90 percent and stays there briefly, the level clears and you gain 25 seconds. The run ends when time runs out.
