About Felix The Reaper

Felix the Reaper is Kong Orange's 2019 shadow-puzzle game — a dancing Reaper from the Ministry of Death who may only step on shaded tiles, rotates the sun to make new shadows, and arranges accidents so his targets die on schedule — sold as a paid game by Daedalic: $3.99 on iOS since 2020, $4.99 on Android since June 16, 2026. No ads, no purchases, 50-plus levels plus bonus stages. The Android reviews find the puzzles hard and the tile-picking controls harder.

Felix the Reaper Review: Sokoban in the Shade for $4.99, With Slippery Tiles

Only Shadowed Tiles, a Sun You Can Turn, a Death to Arrange

Three rules make the game, and the listing states them: Felix may only stand on tiles in shadow; he can rotate the sun and push objects to cast new shadows; and each level ends when the designated human dies — by whatever chain of events the map sets up. It is a grid puzzle in the Hitman Go and Monument Valley family with Sokoban's box-pushing, and the studio wrapped it in dark comedy — Felix dances everywhere, in love with a woman he can only meet through his job. There are more than 50 levels, bonus levels to unlock and Time Attack variants for players who want the same puzzle against a clock. Kong Orange made it in 2019; Daedalic published iOS in July 2020 and Android on June 16, 2026. Rated Teen and 13+, 1.4 GB on iOS 12 or newer, Android 6.0 or newer.

Hard on Purpose, Fiddly by Accident

The Android reviews, 31 of them at 4.4 with 1,000-plus installs, describe two frustrations that are not the same. A June 18, 2026 three-star with three votes one chapter in, hates playing it because it makes them feel stupid; Daedalic's reply tells them to blame the developers instead. A June 26 three-star calls the game good and the controls terrible: it is easy to pick an unintended tile, frustrating on ordinary levels and worse in Time Attack, where precision achievements are on the line. A September 6 four-star hit a Google Play error 403 that the developer fixed within a day. The iOS listing is older and quieter — five ratings at 3.4, a 2020 five-star that calls it a good puzzler with crisp audio and a 2020 one-star crashing on the opening cutscene — and its August 27, 2026 update, version 1.22, was a Unity security fix rather than new content.

$3.99 on iPhone, $4.99 on Android, Nothing Else

The economy is two price tags. The App Store lists Felix the Reaper at $3.99, Google Play at $4.99, and neither shows an advertising badge or an in-app purchase — no hints for money, no level packs, no currency. Google's data-safety card lists nothing collected or shared, and Apple lists no tracking. Apple Silicon Macs run the iOS build. Daedalic Entertainment of Hamburg is the publisher of record on both stores, with support through its own address, and it answers Play reviews under its name. The Android version, 1.25, is newer than the iOS one, 1.22. Prices are regional.

Pros

  • A shadow-and-sun mechanic no other puzzle game uses
  • 50-plus levels, bonus stages and Time Attack for replays
  • Dark comedy, dance and victim lore sheets around the puzzles
  • One purchase — $3.99 on iOS, $4.99 on Android — no ads, no hints for sale
  • Nothing collected or shared, and a Play Store error fixed within a day

Cons

  • Easy to tap the wrong tile, worst in Time Attack, per a June 2026 review
  • Difficulty that makes players feel stupid one chapter in
  • English only on both stores, with no other languages listed
  • Only 31 Android reviews and five on iOS — a small record

Verdict

A 6.8: an original, funny, hard puzzle game sold for a fair one-time price, on a phone that sometimes picks the wrong tile. Take it if you liked Hitman Go or Monument Valley and want something with real difficulty and a dancing Grim Reaper. Skip it if imprecise taps in a precision game would ruin it for you, or if you want hints — there are none to buy, which is the point.

Gameplay7Shadow logic that is genuinely fresh and genuinely hard; not for the easily frustrated.
Controls5Tile picking that misfires on a phone, per the June review — the port's weak point.
Replay value5Time Attack and bonus levels after the story; one solution per puzzle.
Graphics & sound7Bright floating islands, a dancing Reaper and crisp audio, per a 2020 review.
Monetisation9A paid game with nothing else to sell — the whole shop is the price.

Frequently asked questions

1

Can you play Felix the Reaper offline?

Yes — it is a paid single-player puzzle game with no ads, no online features and nothing collected per Google's data-safety card. The September 2026 error 403 was a store problem at purchase, not something the game needs afterwards.

2

Is Felix the Reaper free?

No. It is $3.99 on the App Store and $4.99 on Google Play, paid once, with no in-app purchases and no ads. There is no free trial or hint pack — if a puzzle stops you, the answer is in your head or a walkthrough. Prices vary by region.

3

What phone do you need for Felix the Reaper?

iOS 12 or newer with 1.4 GB free, or Android 6.0 or newer; Apple Silicon Macs run it too. The floors are low and the reviews report no performance trouble — a 2020 iPhone crash at the cutscene is the only one. Precision is the issue, so a larger screen helps with tile selection.

4

Can you play Felix the Reaper with friends?

No. It is a single-player puzzle game with no co-op, multiplayer or leaderboards on either store; Time Attack times are yours alone. The humans in each level are targets, not players.

5

How long is Felix the Reaper?

More than 50 levels plus bonus stages, each a few minutes when it clicks and much longer when it does not — a June 2026 reviewer was still on chapter one and struggling. Time Attack replays add hours for completionists. Expect a week of evenings for the story.
