Priority fixes

  1. [title_readability] Increase the size and weight of the CRISOL wordmark and simplify or remove THEATER OF IDOLS subtitle at small sizes, or place it on a darker controlled strip to retain legibility down to tiny thumbnail dimensions.
  2. [composition] Introduce slightly more breathing room around the idol face by reducing the density of the upper ornamental framing, ensuring the focal point remains isolated and clear at small and tiny sizes.
  3. [contrast_color] Brighten or add a subtle rim light or outer glow to the pale idol face to further separate it from surrounding dark elements, ensuring the silhouette reads cleanly in grayscale and against the Steam dark sidebar.
  4. [uniqueness_polish] Introduce a more specific visual storytelling cue such as blood imagery or the island setting to hint at the blood-as-ammunition survival mechanic and differentiate from pure atmospheric horror titles.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Add 1-2 concrete examples of enemy types (e.g., 'animated stone statues,' 'cultist abominations') in the detailed description to make the horror tangible.
  2. [uniqueness] Expand the 'A Story Rooted in Horror and History' section with a specific historical or folkloric hook (e.g., reference a particular Spanish myth, Inquisition element, or supernatural concept) that explains why Hispania is distinct.
  3. [audience_targeting] Add a sentence clarifying difficulty, pacing, or player type (e.g., 'Designed for story-first players who enjoy resource management tension' or 'Hardcore horror fans seeking puzzle-driven combat') to help self-selection.
  4. [feature_communication] Include an example or two of how blood-as-weapon interacts with puzzles (e.g., 'use blood trails to solve environmental riddles' or 'drain specific pools to unlock passages') to deepen mechanical clarity.
