4About it
A carved block hangs between a lamp and a wall, and every piece of it casts its own small shadow. Each block is carved so that from one way its shadow is a picture, a heart, a fish, a key, a house, a star, a tree or a bird, and from the side it is another; from most turns it is a jumble. Turn it until its shadow fills the outline drawn on the wall; the Match chip says how close you are. In 2D you see only the wall, as if you stood at the lamp, and turn the block by its shadow alone; the 3D button steps to the side so the lamp and the block show.
