Cryptis

Cryptis is a first-person shooter in which you battle undead and other monsters through a series of combat arenas. One review describes the player emerging from a sarcophagus into a desolate realm, where enemies soon appear.

Fight successive waves of enemies, using firearms and a sword against foes with different attack styles. Clear each encounter to open the way forward, then face a final boss.

Fast movement is central to combat: you can double-jump and air-dash to evade attacks. The arsenal offers different ways to fight, while enemies and arenas shape each encounter.

Reviewers who enjoyed Cryptis often point to its quick, energetic combat, responsive movement, distinctive retro-gothic visuals, and fitting music. Some also praise the feel of the weapons. Others find the game very short or encounters repetitive, and the final boss arena draws criticism for its pits and frustrating design.
