To celebrate the launch of our new game, DETACHMENT, Shades is FREE THIS WEEKEND! We’re not going to pretend - we’re giving Shades away for free because we really hope you’ll try Detachment too. It has the same minimalist design and mellow, meditative gameplay. So download both games today - they’re both FREE! Meditation + Panic. It's an addictive combo. Over 4 million people have chilled out with Shades, you should too. ~ Apple App Of The Week! ~ Buzzfeed - featured in "31 iPhone Games You Should Be Playing Already" ~ Buzzfeed - featured in "29 Games Every Procrastinator Should Know About" ~ Apple Best New Games ~ Starbucks "Pick of the Week" "Shades is a really charming puzzle game, not unlike Tetris.
