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 cooperative tactical card-battling adventure where positioning and deck-building drive each unique run.

What players say

Players praise the core idea and co-op fun, but nearly all agree the game is unfinished and abandoned. A progress reset bug that wipes earned upgrades and currencies is widely reported, especially in multiplayer where only the host keeps progression. The game is frequently called a clone of Across the Obelisk that adds movement to battles, but with too few enemy types and shallow card combos.
