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 darkly comedic metroidvania where you explore a sprawling dungeon, learn spells, and battle bosses while a sarcastic ghost insults you at every turn.

What players say

Players praise this short Metroidvania for its thoughtful level design and creative bosses, especially the final one. The art style and writing are called cute, though opinions split on difficulty: some find it easy, others say it is hard.
