What is Shadow Relics?

Shadow Relics asks you to restore a display case by matching each trinket with its exact silhouette. Drag an item from the basket onto a shadow, or pick it and tap the destination. Shape alone is insufficient: size and facing matter too. A wrong placement extinguishes one of three candles; losing all three restarts that case. The 30 cases introduce mirrored pieces, objects that belong in a cauldron, and a timer in the final chapter.

Fill the display case

  1. Choose a curio, compare its outline and size with the empty shadows, then drag it to the matching space. Tap-to-pick followed by a tap on the shadow also works.
  2. From case 13, some pieces must face the other way. Tap a selected item again or press F to flip it before placing.
  3. From case 19, some basket items have no shadow. Drop those in the cauldron; putting a real display item there loses a candle.
  4. In cases 25–30, finish before the moon clock runs out. A failed case restarts with the same arrangement, so use what you learned about its look-alikes.

Keep the candles lit

  • Compare a large item and its smaller look-alike before dropping either. Correct shape at the wrong size still counts as a mistake.
  • Ask Pip with an item selected to reveal its shadow or the cauldron. The hint costs one candle and only works while at least two remain.
  • The number of candles left when you finish is your star rating. A clean case with no wrong drop or hint earns three stars.

Shadow Relics FAQ

Why did a correct-looking item lose a candle?

The shadow must match its exact shape, size and facing; a similar silhouette is not enough.

What belongs in the cauldron?

Only trinkets that have no matching shadow in that case. This mechanic begins in case 19.

What does Ask Pip cost?

One candle. It identifies the selected item’s destination and cannot be used with only one candle lit.

When does the timer appear?

Only the final six cases, 25 through 30, use the moon clock.

What progress is saved?

The browser keeps unlocked cases and star ratings. A partially filled case starts again when you return.
