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 simple roll-and-battle romp where the chance of the dice and short first-person skirmishes keep each turn feeling light and unpredictable.

About

Maze Heroes is a curious mix between a board game and a rpg game. The gameaply is similar to a board game, the player roll a dice and advance to each board table until he can meet against the end level boss. The different part is that during the board he will fight against enemies depending of wich square he reachs and have to battle them. If the player defeats the ending level boss he will advance to the next level. The battles parts are in a first person perspective view meanwhile the board part is a isometric view.
