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 tense, precision-driven 2D action-adventure through a dark fantasy underworld, where parrying is key and mask-switching skills define the flow.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, competent metroidvania with a Korean aesthetic and a strong Hollow Knight influence. While the art and boss fights are praised, the parry timing, linear level design, and somewhat clunky controls are common complaints. Players split on whether the game is a solid genre entry or a forgettable one.
