The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A tense survival horror where every fight costs your own life force in a grotesque, sun-scorched nightmare version of Spain.

What players say

Players say Crisol mixes Bioshock and Resident Evil with a unique health-as-ammo mechanic, but opinions split on execution. Many praise the gorgeous Spanish-inspired art direction and world, while others criticize sluggish combat, grating voice acting, and technical problems like controller camera stutter that went unfixed.
