 Game Art's Shadow Walker, a WiiWare title in which players take on the role of a boy's shadow, will be released in North America, but under a different name, according to an ESRB listing.    

The game, called The Magic Obelisk, has been rated E for Everyone and is described as being a puzzle game in which players guide a spirit floating across landscapes in the sky.    

The game's twist is that the spirit can only traverse through shadows. Players must create paths so the spirit can walk through new areas. Enemies, such as robotic cats and ghosts, can knock the spirit out of the shadows.    

The game has yet to be officially announced for North America.
