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

Feels like playing a digital board game where careful card management and strategic decisions drive the story forward in a fantasy setting.

What players say

Players praise the game as a faithful digital version of the physical card game, but often clash over RNG dependence and bugs that can crash the final mission. Long-time fans enjoy the convenience, while others find it grindy and microtransaction-heavy.
