*[Shadow Love](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/shadow-love/id530364171?mt=8&ref=killscreen.com)* is not going make any end-of-year lists, it’s not going to inspire [50,000 words about issues](http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16162864-killing-is-harmless?ref=killscreen.com), and it’s not going to stake a claim for Japanese indies. But this platform game, with its incredible shadow-puppet universe (in which every other thing is some sort of weird hand contortion) might just make you forget about this mortal coil for a few minutes. [Strawberry Gohan’s](http://strawberrygohan.com/iPhone/application%5Fen.html?ref=killscreen.com) game is just very charming and very pretty and very free and you will probably giggle delightedly at it. And sometimes that’s enough, right?

Play it after *Black Ops 2* or *Assassin’s Creed* or some other overripe meat; it works like mouthwash.
