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

Managing a dungeon for a cynical corporation while squashing heroes feels like a darkly humorous board game with strategic depth and punishing runs.

What players say

Players appreciate the clever role reversal of defending a dungeon against heroes, but many find combat repetitive and runs grow stale after several hours. Opinions are split on difficulty and depth, some enjoy monster synergies and the humor, while others say strategy is shallow and the morale system feels pointless.
