Shady Part of Me Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Excellent gameplay, unique ideas, and a strong presentation make for an easily recommendable narrative puzzle platformer.
Shady Part of Me has a great visual style and a fantastic soundtrack that emphasizes the moodiness of some of its scenes, as well as solid voice acting for its major characters. Above all, the way it plays with light and perspective for its puzzles is very well-done and makes the puzzle-solving the high point of the experience.
Shady Part of Me has a frustrating story and a terrible title, but it's a great little puzzle platformer with a very neat central mechanic.
If you’re after a new puzzle game to play, you’d be wise to consider Shady Part of Me, especially if you’re drawn to its moody aesthetic. Just be aware that it probably won’t hold your attention with a vice-like grip due to the repetitive nature of many of its puzzles. While it’s not a long game by any means, you’re more likely to enjoy it over numerous sittings, rather than being glued to the screen from beginning to end.
