    SCHiM is an inventive, highly creative puzzle platformer. There’s a genius idea that comes to the fore, and going from shadow to shadow is highly entertaining. But the developers have also managed to create a world and a story that many will want to spend much time in...In a perfect world, there could be some more hints and pointers, but SCHiM is a game that will ensure you’ll never want to lose track of your shadow.

    We recommend SCHiM to try something calmer, to look for a moment of experimentation or relaxation accompanied by pleasant visuals and a matching soundtrack. Players can find an interesting space to take a break from other more frenetic experiences or to take advantage of some free time from other activities that can overwhelm them on a daily basis. SCHiM can be that showcase to take a break and look for a space for personal encounter .

    SCHiM is a delight of a game. Taking a concept that some of us may have played out in our heads as kids, imaging something jumping across the shadows or us jumping ourselves, and have turned that into a beautiful game. Without words, without facial expressions, and limiting color palettes, SCHiM manages to make something really unique.

    SCHiM es a simple but effective puzzle game. It has a good idea well executed, although it became repetitive and too easy.

    SCHiM is an excellent discovery with tons of inventiveness, ideas and experimentation, but still finding its way. While it's fun to explore its four-colour levels and test out all the possibilities offered by taking control of each object, the whole thing still feels rather repetitive and linear. Nonetheless, the adventure is well worth getting over its shortcomings, if only for its originality and the ingenious treatment of its content.
