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 lighthearted tactical card-battler that feels like playing through a comic book adventure with a squad of friends against quirky monsters and zombies.

What players say

Players say this is a fun, smart deck-builder that swaps Slay the Spire's roguelike structure for a campaign where two characters fight side by side with separate decks. The art and story are charming, especially for fans of the books or show, but players split on replay value: some call the campaign a one-and-done experience with no meta progression to bring them back.
