Priority fixes

  1. [title_readability] Simplify or thicken the 'CONTRABAND' letterforms and increase contrast with a heavier outline or drop shadow so both title lines read at 120x45 pixels.
  2. [contrast_color] Reduce background complexity by darkening or blurring the checkpoint workers and barrier details to isolate the main officer silhouette more cleanly at small sizes.
  3. [uniqueness_polish] Add a subtle era-specific graphic element such as a Soviet-style stamp, document corner, or red star motif to elevate the composition beyond a standard character-on-background template.
  4. [brand_consistency] Introduce a compact iconic badge or emblem derived from the 'POLIZKA' visual that can serve as a recognizable solo mark in library thumbnails.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [hook_strength] Rewrite the short description to lead with the unique inspection mechanic: 'Scrutinize documents, search vehicles, and uncover corruption at a Cold War border post—but your choices will determine your survival and the country's fate.'
  2. [uniqueness] Add a sentence in the detailed description explicitly distinguishing this game: 'Unlike action-focused police games, every interaction relies on attention to detail—forged documents, hidden contraband, and moral choices drive your progression.'
  3. [feature_communication] Clarify the narrative weight of decisions by expanding the Special assignments section or adding a standalone 'Choices & Consequences' subsection explaining how player decisions affect endings and faction relationships.
