}}Contrast is a puzzle-based platform style video game developed by Compulsion Games for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One,[1] and NVIDIA Shield.[2]

Gameplay

The game is set in a noir atmosphere aesthetically inspired by Belle Epoque and Art Nouveau. The player must solve puzzles that require movement between the physical world, which is represented as 3D, and shadows, which are represented as 2D. The player may sometimes manipulate different light sources in the 3D world (spotlights, film projectors, etc.) to create the shadow paths that reach into new areas; "collectibles", available through game-play, offer insight into the game's characters and the world in which they live. The goal of the game is exploration and discovery through problem solving.

Dawn and Didi are the two characters who appear as full 3D figures. The player controls Dawn, an imaginary friend, who is able to manifest as a three-dimensional shadow. Dawn is able to jump between two shadows, no matter how far apart they are. All other characters appear as shadows against the visual walls, but they still interact with the world as though they are "real."

Plot

{{empty-section|date=January 2017}}

The game's story is broken up into three acts. The player character is an elegant and slender female acrobat, Dawn, who has the ability to leap into shadows. Dawn's companion is a little girl named Didi, with whom Dawn has a mysterious past. The two work together to help put back together her complicated family; Didi's mother, a jazz singer, and her father, whose multiple plans have gotten him into trouble with the Mafia. Adding in is a mysterious magician who may have a relation to both Didi and Dawn as the two work together to figure out the truth through the shadows.
