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 methodical dungeon crawler where you constantly rearrange and experiment with magical pieces to trigger effects, feeling like solving a puzzle while fighting monsters.

What players say

Players describe it as a dungeon-crawling roguelike that mixes inventory puzzle and skill stacking, similar to Backpack Hero. The left-click-to-move, right-click-to-attack controls are widely called unintuitive. Reviews are split on polish: some praise the spell combos, others call it a cheap mashup with poor translation and unfinished presentation for a 1.0 release.
