SCHiM
In the world of SCHiM (available now for PC/console), everyone and everything has a weird little guy who lives in their shadow. You’re one of those “schims,” who’s been attached to your person since he was a kid. On what’s got to be the worst day of your person’s adult life, he accidentally severs his connection with you. Now you’ve got to find your way back to your person by traveling through every scrap of shade you can find.
SCHiM is a puzzle-platformer from a two-person team out of the Netherlands, with rotoscoped monochrome graphics and a simple central hook. If you can’t simply hop from one shadow to another, you can hop into an object’s shadow and take control of it to create your own opportunities.
All you’re really ever trying to do is get from point A to B, but there’s real charm and inventiveness to SCHiM that makes it an easy pick for a weekend’s entertainment.
