Priority fixes

  1. [uniqueness_polish] Introduce a subtle unique visual element—such as a ghostly overlay, trial setting detail, or symbolic motif—that signals Pera Coda's core concept of being trapped between life and death at a glance.
  2. [genre_clarity] Add a secondary visual cue hinting at the branching dialogue or supernatural mystery mechanic (e.g., subtle ghosting, light anomaly, or symbolic artifact) to strengthen genre specificity at SMALL size.
  3. [brand_consistency] Develop a recognizable visual signature or icon (perhaps tied to the trial/judgement theme or Istanbul setting) that can serve as an internal brand marker across promotional materials.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Add 2–3 concrete puzzle examples or mechanics (e.g., 'reconstruct memories through symbol-matching,' 'navigate branching dialogue trees that recontextualize scenes'). This will give players a clearer mental model of actual gameplay interaction.
  2. [hook_strength] Replace the closing 'Wishlist Pera Coda now!' with a sentence that resonates emotionally with the game's themes—e.g., 'Face the life you lived. Wishlist Pera Coda and begin your trial.' [tone_match]
  3. [uniqueness] Add one visual or narrative example of surrealism in Istanbul—e.g., 'Where neon signs flicker into memories and streets shift beneath your feet'—to make the aesthetic more vivid and memorable than 'slight surrealism.'
  4. [audience_targeting] Explicitly mention estimated playtime and story length (if substantial) to help solo, narrative-focused players gauge commitment and set expectations.
