Walkthrough Introduction
Divergent Shift is a puzzle platformer that was released on the Nintendo DSi on the DSiWare service. The game was developed by Intrinsic Games and published by Konami. The game's release date was on August 23, 2010. In this game, the player takes control of a girl named Kirra who has a mirror character who affects her progress through the levels.
Story
Kirra is a thief who was assigned to steal a magic mirror from an old castle. When she obtains the mirror, she accidentally breaks it which causes the world to break into 2. Kirra must then take control of her mirror self and navigate the many obstacles that are in her way. She must obtain the mirror pieces that have been scattered and restore the world to its former self.
Gameplay
Divergent Shift plays and controls similarly to other platform games. What makes this different from other games in the genre is that there is a mirror version of the game in the bottom screen with different obstacles. Kirra's actions in one screen affects her mirror self. If Kirra runs into a wall in one screen, the mirror version will not be able to move forward even if there is nothing in the way. In some levels, mirror Kirra will transform into a shadow. While the actions of the shadow are still reflected by Kirra's, it will be able move through the obstacles on her side regardless of the obstacles on Kirra's side. The player must take advantage of the two Kirras in order to navigate through the many obstacles in the game.
Divergent Shift Trailer
This is the trailer for Divergent Shift that was presented at Gamescom 2010. It shows off the mirror mechanics of the game and later shows a brief presentation of how the shadow works.
General Tips
- When Kirra's mirror self is the same color as she is, it is affected by Kirra's movements.
- When Kirra's mirror self is darkened, it still follows Kirra's movements. However the shadow is able to navigate the obstacles on its side independently from Kirra's.
- Some of Kirra's other abilities include sliding, wall jumping, and pushing crates. These are necessary for navigating certain obstacles.
- In the shadow levels, there are vortexes that allow Kirra and the shadow to be aligned with each other.
- If Kirra dies on her side, the mirror version will die as well. The same applies for vice-versa.
- Because of the mirrored nature of the game, up means down and vice-versa when it comes to the geography of the bottom screen. For example, if the guide says to jump up onto something at the bottom screen, it means that the character would jump down in the view of the player.

Now jump left to the platform at the bottom screen before jumping to the next left platform at the top screen. Then jump left again and open up the journal at the bottom screen.
- Drop down at the right to land on a branch at the bottom screen. Then go back to the right until you get past the part where you had to jump up the tree ledges. Get onto the branch above those ledge, jump onto the tree at the bottom screen, and run through the exit.
Chapter 2-6
- Go right for a bit to find a floating leaf at the top screen. Grab the right edge of the leaf but do not climb over it. Ride that leaf to the right. Along the way is a stone platform and a journal at the top screen. When the leaf is moving towards that platform, jump onto the leaf, get onto the stone platform, and open the journal. The leaf moves fast so be careful not to fall down.
- From the stone platform, drop down to the right to land on a tree branch at the top screen. Wall jump up the trees until you reach a treetop at the bottom screen. Go right for a bit and grab the floating leaf at the top screen. Ride the leaf to the right until it floats through a tree. Drop down to the tree branch at the top screen and drop to the left.
- Now go right until you see an arrow sign. Then jump up the trees at the bottom screen. When you reach a top, jump onto the leaf at the top screen. As you go jump over the tree at the top screen, and duck under the tree at the bottom screen. Also, you will see a couple of trees at the top and bottom screens. Run across those and jump onto the leaf when it presents itself. Once the leaf stops, jump onto the tree branch at the bottom screen.
- Now jump onto the floating leaf at the bottom screen. When it flies into a couple of trees at the bottom screen, jump into the right tree and do a couple of wall jumps. You should jump over the tree and land back onto the leaf. When you reach a tree at the top screen, grab the ledge, climb onto the top, and drop to the right. Push the crate to the right, and jump onto the right tree. Do this quickly because the floating leaf will disappear if you wait too long.
- After jump across the leaf and onto the tree branch at the top screen, wait for the leaves at the right to line up. Then run to the right and slide under the tree. Grab the mirror shard to finish the level.

Chapter 3-2
- Go right and have both characters jump over the pillar. Then have Kirra to the top the stone platforms while the shadow slides under the pillar. Get the shadow to wall jump over the right pillar before gettin Kirra to jump onto the stone platform at the right. Now let Kirra drop down from the right side of the platform as the shadow drops from the right side of the pillar.
- Have the shadow climb to the top of the pillar with the journal before opening it. Meanwhile, Kirra should be standing at the left side of another platform. Have both characters jump to the left, do a wall jump, and grab onto the edge of a platform. Now have both characters move right as the shadow jumps across the platforms.
- Go right until both characters are standing next to a pillar. Climb over the pillar and go right. Have Kirra move the crate to the left for a bit. Then have her jump over the crate and slide under the pillar. Afterwards, repeat the same process for the shadow before going into the exit.
Chapter 3-3
- As you go right, have both characters jump onto the platform. Then get the shadow to slide underneath the pillar. Keep going right until both characters have reached a wall. Now wall jump upwards until they grab onto the top of the right pillar. Once you climb up, have the shadow jump onto the next at the right.
- Wait for the platform at the top screen to be fully extended. Then have the shadow jump across the pillars at her right. When Kirra reaches the first pillar after the extending platform, have her jump over the pillars at the right so that she could reach the ground. Go right to find some falling blocks.
- When the large block falls down at the top screen, have Kirra wall jump from the pillar at its left. She should land on top of that block. Then lead her to the journal and open it. Now lead Kirra back onto the top of the block and ride it to upwards. As the block goes up, lead the shadow past the falling blocks on her side.
- Once Kirra reaches the top, lead her to the right. Stop when the shadow is on an area between 2 cracked floors. Above the cracked floor at the right are 2 platforms that drop down. The right platform will drop and then the left one will follow it immediately. When the left platform goes up, lead the characters to the right. Have the shadow slide through the narrow passage along the way.
- When Kirra drops down, open up the journal on the floor. Then go right and run through the exit at the top screen.
Chapter 3-4
- Move right and have both characters jump onto the platforms. Get both of them to stand next to the short pillars before jumping over them. Keep going right. When the shadow starts to fall into the pit, have Kirra jump onto the pillar. Kirra should be grabbing the top of the pillar while her shadow is grabbing the right edge of the pit. Now get both characters to climb up before you get Kirra to jump to the platform at the right.
- If the shadow grabbed the top of the pillar, have her drop down. Then move Kirra into the wall at the right. Have Kirra jump up and wall jump to the left platform. When she grabs the platform, have her jump to the pillar at the right. When she grabs that pillar, climb on top of it. If the shadow is on top of the pillar on her side, have her jump on the platform at the right. If the shadow is on the floor at the right side of the pillar on her side, get her on top of that pillar while keeping Kirra on top of the pillar on her side. Then have the shadow jump onto the platform.
- Now have the shadow jump onto the next platform at the right. Move her to the right edge of the platform. Now move a bit to the left. Move right again and have Kirra slide under pillar. Both characters should grab another pillar. Climb onto the pillars and then jump across the platforms at the right.
- When they reach the ground, move the characters to the right. After Kirra reaches a wall, have the shadow jump onto the small platform. Then have Kirra wall jump onto the top of the right platform. Then move right until the shadow reaches a wall on her side. Get the shadow to wall jump until she grabs a ledge. Then have her jump to the left and continue wall jumping until she reaches the top of one of the pillars.
- Move the shadow onto the right pillar. Then have her slide down the right side of the pillar for a bit. Wall jump into the journal and open it. When the shadow drops onto the ground, have her move left and slide under the pillar. Be careful not to let Kirra fall off the platform on her side. Now get the shadow to wall jump back up onto the right pillar. Jump into the vortex, go right, and run through the exit.
Chapter 3-5
- In this level, shadow Kirra will revert back to mirror Kirra. Start off by pulling the lever. Then jump onto the pillar that appears at the top screen before jumping onto the platform at the bottom screen. As the pillar goes right, jump over the platform at the bottom screen and then duck under the spiked ceiling at the top screen. When the platform stops, jump onto the platform at the right.
- Go right until Kirra reaches a spiked wall. Have mirror Kirra jump into the pillar at the left and wall jump onto a ledge. Then jump onto the right to grab another ledge. Jump onto the top of the pillar and jump onto the platform at the left.
- Go left until mirror Kirra reaches a moving spiked ceiling on her side. When that ceiling goes up, move to the left and jump onto the platform. Wait for the spikes to go up again before moving to the left. When Kirra finds a platform at the top screen, jump onto it and ride it to the left. Jump towards the journal and open it.
- When another platform appears at the left and on the top screen, jump onto it. Then ride it down. At the bottom, jump onto the platform at the right. Then jump into the journal and open it. Now have mirror Kirra jump onto a small platform on her side. Wait for a platform that is moving right and jump onto it. Duck under the spiked ceiling at the top screen. When the platform stops, jump onto the next platform at the right.
- Upon reaching the spiked wall again, have mirror Kirra wall jump off the left pillar. Keep jumping until they grab a ledge. Now jump right onto another ledge and then jump onto the pillar. Jump onto the platform at the top screen and ride it to the right. Then jump onto the next platform at the bottom screen. Climb onto the pillar before jumping onto the next pillar at the top screen.
- Jump onto the platform at the right and open the journal at the bottom screen. Then run onto the platform at the bottom screen and ride it up. When it reaches the top, run to the right and slide under the spikes at the top screen. When mirror Kirra is about to slide into a spike pit, jump to the right and onto another platform. Go right and pull the lever.
Chapter 3-6
- When you pull the lever, the spiked wall at the bottom screen will start moving towards the right. After you pull that lever, immediately run to the right and slide through the narrow passage. Then jump onto the platform at the top screen, jump into the left wall, and wall jump repeatedly until you reach the top of the right wall.
- Pull the lever at the top screen and drop down. Then run to the right, slide through the narrow passage at the bottom screen, and wall jump onto the right wall. When you pull onto the next lever, the spiked ceiling at the bottom screen will start to fall gradually. Once you pull that ceiling, drop down, go right, and slide through the narrow passage at the top screen. After a short fall, slide through the narrow passage at the left. After another fall, slide through the narrow passage at the right, jump over the pit, and slide through another narrow passage.
- Now jump up the walls at the top screen. When you reach the top, go to the left and open up the journal. Then head back right and run through the exit.
Chapter 3-7

When you reach the edge, drop down and slide off the wall for a bit. Then jump onto the pillar at the top screen, followed by a pillar at the bottom screen, and another one at the top screen.
- Drop off the pillar at its right side. When you reach the ground, go right until you reach a wall. Wall jump onto the top of the right wall and continue going right. When you reach 3 yellow blocks at the top screen, wait for the left block to move down. Then run to the right and over those yellow blocks. You should be able to go through them before they rise up to the spiked ceiling.
- Now wait for the yellow blocks at the bottom screen to go up. Then move to the right until you reach another wall. Wall jump onto the top of the pillar at the left and at the bottom screen. Drop onto the yellow blocks at the bottom screen. When they rise up, go to the left and slide under the yellow block at the top screen.
- When you reach another wall, wall jump until you reach the top of the right pillar. To right are a pair of yellow blocks that move diagonally. Wait for them to move onto the floor and jump onto the left block. When it goes towards, the ceiling do a right jump. You should be able to keep yourself on top of the block while avoiding being pushed by the other block. Now go right onto the adjacent block at the bottom screen. Ride it to the right while you avoid being pushed by the other block. Jump onto the platform above you and then wall jump towards the journal. After opening it, drop down and wait for the yellow blocks to move onto the floor. Then drop onto the right block, and move right. Once you are past these blocks, drop off the edge.
- Go right and you will see 2 pairs of yellow blocks at the bottom screen. One moves near the ceiling and the other moves on the floor. You can safely move under the blocks near the ceiling but the ones on the floor will block your way. Wait for the 2 pairs to be positioned close to each other. Then wall jump onto the pair at the right. When it is safe, drop off the right side of those blocks and move right.
- When you reach a cracked floor, your way to the left will be blocked off. Stay at the left and wait for a T-block to drop down at the top screen. Then jump on top of it. When a square block falls down at the bottom screen, jump onto that. A Z-block will then fall onto the T-block. Jump onto the topmost spot of that block. You should be safe from the J-block that appears at the bottom screen. Jump onto that block and then quickly jump onto the platform at the right. Grab the Mirror Shard to finish the level.

Chapter 4-1
- In this level, you will have to take control of Shadow Kirra again. Start by heading right. Slide through the narrow passage and wall jump up onto the upper right platform. Then slide through the next narrow passage. As you slide, hold the right button so that the shadow will grab the ledge above the spikes. Have the shadow climb up before going right.
- When you reach the falling ceiling, press Kirra against it while it is low. When her and the shadow are lined up, slide under the ceiling while it is raised. Then open the journal above the vortex. Slide through the next narrow passage and jump onto the small platform afterwards. When the above passageway is opened, wall jump through it, fall to the right, and open the journal. Then have the shadow slide through the narrow passage at the right, get Kirra to jump up the platforms at her right, and then drop into the vortex.
- Slide into the next narrow passage. Keep Kirra ducking so that she does not get crushed by the ceiling. Meanwhile, get the shadow to wall jump upwards before going into the vortex. Now head right and go through the exit.
Chapter 4-2
- Open the journal before going right. When Kirra and her shadow run into a wall, wall jump onto the upper left platform. Have Kirra move the crate on her side to the left until it is below the upper passageway. Then move left before getting the shadow to the crate on her side towards the right. Once the crate on the bottom screen is below the upper passage on that side, move both characters to the right side of their respective crates, jump onto them, and then wall jump up the passage.
- After reaching the top, go to the right. After getting the shadow to jump over the small platform, pull the levers on both screens. First have Kirra drop into the pit at the left. Open the journal and then wall jump back to the top. Then drop down the pit at the right. Open the journal at the bottom screen before going right. Once Kirra goes through the vortex, go right until they see a lever and a crate. Pull the lever and then move the crate towards the left.
- Once the crate is below the upper platform, get both characters to jump onto that platform. Have Kirra wall jump through the upper passageway. Once she reaches the top, move both characters to the right. When the shadow reaches a wall, have her wall jump onto the high platform. Upon reaching the top, move the shadow to the right and pull the lever. Then have Kirra drop to the lever on her side and flip that one. Finally, get the shadow to drop into the vortex.
- Open the journal at the left. You will have to get the shadow to jump in order to reach it. Go right and pull the switch and then jump onto the platform that appears. Repeat the process 3 more times and then jump into the vortex. Now get the shadow to drop down the pit at the left and open the journal. Then move Kirra to the left and climb onto one of the platform. Jump back towards the vortex. Get the shadow to drop down the pit at the right. When she reaches the bottom, move both characters to the right. Kirra should reach a pit with a crate while the shadow should reach a wall.
- Have Kirra hold onto the crate for the following procedure. Have the shadow jump onto the upper platform and move into the right wall. Then wall jump onto the upper platform at the left and move her into the left wall. Now wall jump onto the next upper platform, go right, and then drop into the vortex. Finally, go right and run through the exit.
Chapter 4-3
- Wait for the platform at the right to move near the starting point. Then climb onto the platform and stand near the right edge. Just when the platform starts to move, jump up. The shadow should land on the bottom platform at the bottom screen. Duck down before that platform moves to the right. Once the platform moves under the column and stops at the right side, have the shadow jump into the vortex.
- Now jump to the left and open the journal. When the shadow lands on the vortex again, jump to the right. Go right until Kirra runs into another vortex. Then continue moving right. The shadow should grab the right ledge. Jump over the pit at the right and at the top screen and jump off the wall. Kirra and the shadow should grab the ledges. Have Kirra climb on to the platform.
- When the shadow grabs the ledge again, have it jump up. Now get the shadow to jump off the wall just as Kirra reaches the ground. While the shadow is in the air, quickly have Kirra run left and slide through the narrow passage. Do a wall jump to reach the journal and open it. Now have the shadow jump up. Just before Kirra lands, have the shadow jump off the wall. While the shadow is in the air, move Kirra back through the narrow passage.
- Jump up the platforms while avoiding the spikes. Make sure the shadow stays on the left ledge. When you reach an upward passage, jump onto the first ledge at the bottom left. Now get Kirra and the shadow to jump right and grab the next ledges. Jump back to the left and grab the following ledges. Repeat the process until Kirra reaches the top.
- Run into the vortex. Then wall jump onto the moving platform at the right. When that platform moves up, jump onto the high platform at the left and open the journal. Then drop back onto the vortex. When the platform goes up, run to the right and onto the lowered part of the floor. Duck down as the platform goes down. Once it goes up, jump to the right and onto the raised part of the platform. Be careful not to touch the spikes as you do so. Now run to the right and slide into the journal. Open it up and then run into the vortex.
- Now have both characters wall jump onto the upper left platforms. Then move them to the left as Kirra moves across the moving platform. When Kirra reaches the left edge of the moving platform, have her jump onto the edge where the opened journal is. Leave Kirra on that platform and let the shadow drop down the pit. When she reaches the bottom, move the shadow to the right and open the journal. Now let Kirra drop back onto the vortex. Then have her wall jump onto the moving platform and go to the right. Run through the exit at the end.
Chapter 4-4
- Go to the right. Have Kirra push into the platform while positioning the shadow under the gap in the ceiling. Jump up and have Kirra land on the platform. Be careful not to have the shadow touch the spikes. Now go right and get past the 2 moving blocks. Have the shadow open the journal after the 2nd block. When the blocks move down, wall jump onto the right block. Then ride it up until both characters go into an upward passage.
- Wall jump up the passage and onto the platform at the left. Then go left and drop off the edge. Stay near the right wall as you fall. Now open the journal before dropping down at the left. Go to the right and go past the moving blocks. After the 3rd block, jump into the right wall and repeatedly wall jump upwards. Go right until you reach a pit. Wait for the moving block to move to the left before dropping down that pit.
- Go to the left and be careful around the cracks and avoid the moving block as it hits those cracks. Drop off the left edge of the floor and then go right. Climb up the platforms along the way. When Kirra reaches a crate, push it to the right until it is below the point where 2 columns of moving blocks meet up at the top screen. While Kirra is still holding the crate, have the shadow jump to the right side of the crate on her side. Get Kirra to let go of the crate and move left. Meanwhile, have the shadow move the crate to the left. Stop when it is below the point where the 2 columns of moving blocks meet up at the bottom screen.
- Now go right and have Kirra jump over the crate. Now have both characters positioned at the right side of their respective crates and jump onto them. When the moving blocks above them are close, wall jump onto the right column. Then ride it to the right, go towards the right, and run through the exit.
Chapter 4-5
- Go right and have the shadow jump through the vortexes. After 3 vortexes, quickly get the shadow to jump up 2 steps and into the next vortex. Then quickly jump up another 2 steps to reach the next vortex. Now have the shadow jump up 3 steps and into the following vortex. Get both characters to jump to the right as Kirra goes towards the right.
- Have Kirra jump over the pit and continue going right. When she reaches another vortex, quickly get Kirra to wall jump upwards. When she reaches a platform, have her run into the vortex before wall jumping up the next passage. She should jump through another vortex along the way. When Kirra reaches the top, go into the vortex and open the journal.
- Have Kirra drop down and go right. At the edge of the floor, jump into the vortex. Now get the shadow to go right. Have the shadow slide through the narrow passage and then wall jump up the passage. Then get the shadow to jump into the vortex at the left.

- Jump to the right and get Kirra to run right. Upon reaching the edge, jump into the vortex and have the shadow go right. When the shadow reaches an edge, have her jump into the next vortex. Keep both characters moving right as Kirra jumps over the spikes. The shadow should land on a vortex on her side. Now move both characters right and slide under the spikes. Then run through the exit.
Chapter 4-6
- Pull the lever and run to the right. Do the slide move to prevent Kirra from getting crushed by the rising platform. Then jump onto the upper platform and run towards the left. When the shadow reaches a wall, have her jump onto the next upper platform. Repeat the process until the shadow reaches another lever. Before pulling on that, have Kirra open the journal on her side.
- After the rising platform stops, pull the lever and have the shadow jump into the right wall. Then wall jump onto the upper platform and go left. When Kirra reaches a gap in the ceiling, have her wall jump off the right side of the gap onto the left side. Now move both characters to the left.

Now have both characters climb onto the platforms.
- Jump towards the right. Right after Kirra grabs the next platform, have the shadow wall jump back to the platform she just jumped from. Now jump to the left and have both characters wall jump onto the upper platforms on their respective sides. Get Kirra to slide under the spinning blades. Meanwhile, have the shadow drop onto a short column that is down-right from her.
- Once Kirra is past the blades, get the shadow to jump onto the column with the arrow sign. Kirra should land on a platform at the right. Now get the shadow to drop onto the short column between the spinning blades. Then jump to the and get the shadow to wall jump onto the upper-right platform.

Also at the 1st spike at the bottom screen, the shadow should jump over it while Kirra lands on that spot.
- Keep going over the spikes in this method until they reach a set of spikes that have the same positions on both screens. At this point, the characters should stop hopskotching. They must simply jump over those spikes in unison. Once they pass through those spikes, run through the exit.
Hopscotch Pro
- This level is unlocked after earning 25 gold medals from the time trials.
- Have Kirra move into the block near the beginning. Position the shadow so that she is about 2 blocks away from Kirra.

She should land between 2 blades while Kirra should land on the left of the 1st blade. Continue jumping over the blades. When the shadow jumps over 3 blades, there will be another set of blades that alternate positions. Jump over those blades like you did with the earlier blades. Then drop off the platform.
- Line up the characters and then head left. Drop off the edge to find a block to the right. Have Kirra jump onto the block. Then jump a bit to the right and initiate the hopscotch method. Time the method so that Kirra and the shadow could land on the moving platform as it goes up on their respective sides. Go across the moving platform using the suggested method and stop on the stone platform.

Now have Kirra jump on the block and wait for the moving blocks at the right to move up. Then have both characters jump over the blades. Be careful not to hit the blocks as they move. When Kirra jumps over the 3rd pair of blades on her side, the shadow should grab onto one of the moving blocks at the bottom screen. Wait for that block to go up. Then have Kirra jump over the next pair of blades at the right. If you timed the jump right, the shadow should wall jump off that block and land safely between the blades on her side. Jump over the next set of blades at the right and then get the shadow to slide under the floating blade on the bottom screen. Then have both characters drop off the platform.
- Now get Kirra to run into the block. Position the shadow so that she is 2 blocks to the left from Kirra. Now have Kirra jump onto the block and position the shadow near the left edge. Wait for the moving block at the bottom screen to be positioned near the shadow. Then have her jump onto it. Kirra should now be positioned near the left edge. Wait for the moving block at the top screen to be positioned near Kirra before you get her to jump onto it. Meanwhile, the shadow should land safely on the next block on her side. Now jump across the next set of blocks at the left until the shadow lands on the 6th block at the bottom screen.
- Jump to the left. While Kirra lands on the 6th block at the top screen, the shadow should grab the edge of the platform at the bottom screen. When Kirra's block is near the platform on her side, have her drop off the block to the left and grab the platform. Now have both characters climb up and jump over the blades at the left. Then run through the exit.
