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 thoughtful and strategic word-crafting adventure that feels like a casual yet engaging puzzle challenge.

What players say
Players describe it as Slay the Spire with word-building, where you spell words from letter cards to attack and defend. Many praise the unique concept and variety, but warn the game remains in Early Access with long delays and no updates since 2024, leaving it feeling unfinished.
