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 roguelite simulation where you observe inorganic beings in a decaying facility, balancing cultivation and escape.

What players say

プレイヤーは短い1プレイの間に次々と降りかかる災害に対処し、緊張感の中でだるまを増やしていく。理不尽な難易度と永続強化が組み合わさり、試行錯誤を重ねたくなるスルメゲーとして評価されている。
