Trixxstrr Crypt Custodian Review

Aug 22, 2025
I finished Crypt Custodian last night, as a friend of mine put it, a cozyvania, and that sums it up perfectly. Unlocking new abilities and areas in this top down map was a cute and charming adventure. It was already pretty forgiving with keeping area progress and currency intact when dying and not having to make long journeys to retry a boss again, but I still turned it down to Easy mode because I suck, haha. I liked that the map you could leave markers on to note places to come back to once you unlocked whatever you needed. The map actually ended up being a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be for a game like this. Not that it was a hugely long game though, it took me 12 hrs to finish. Being able to buy a hint of where to go next in the game was also super helpful. Some of the themes were a bit sad with this being the afterlife for animal deaths and the goal being able to see the people that they left behind again, but there was also some humour in there to break it up and overall it was very enjoyable.
