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 turn-based stealth game where you carefully plan each move, balancing risk and reward to sneak through hand-drawn levels and escape with the goods.

What players say

Players call it a simple, addictive turn-based stealth roguelike where you climb randomly generated floors on a limited budget of health and ammo. Many enjoy it as a quick pick-up-and-play game, and they note the developer actively incorporates feedback.
