Japanese version of Lost in Shadow, vertical action-puzzle by Hudson. Player controls a boy's shadow, navigating a world of indirect light. Silhouette-based platforming, light puzzles, specter enemies. Sublime chiaroscuro art direction, wordless melancholic narration, haunting soundtrack. Some control imprecisions but unique atmosphere. A contemplative experience apart in the Wii catalog.
