Searching each room
Tips
The house is packed with small details that are easy to walk past. Anything that looks out of place — a weird color, an odd arrangement, a shape that does not belong — is almost always a clue.
- Scan the whole room before deciding nothing is there
- Pay extra attention to colors, shapes, and unusual layouts
- Write down hints and item details as you find them
- Some puzzles require combining more than one object
What to check when you are stuck
StepGetting stuck is normal in a puzzle game.
- Revisit the whole room looking for an item you skipped
- Some objects only do something when used together with another
Playing without spending
Warn
Save The Shapes is a solo, story-first experience with no multiplayer competition. Because you are not racing anyone, you can take as long as you like on any puzzle.
The shapes you are saving
TipsThe house is home to a group of shape characters, each with their own name. Diamond is the odd one out — connected to why the others are disappearing.
- Ricky Rectangle is one of the shapes you are trying to rescue
- Sally Square, Cory Circle, Ovy Oval, and Timmy Triangle round out the group
- Diamond stands apart from the others and is central to the plot of Chapter 2
