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 deliberate, methodical crawl through folklore-tinged dungeons with turn-based combat and light puzzle solving.

What players say

Players praise the game for carrying on the classic blobber tradition with a unique Central European folklore setting, but many find the combat basic and the long prologue off-putting. Sentiment is split on the writing and puzzles, with some enjoying them while others call them boring.
