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 grimy, cooperative survival horror romp where you and up to three goblin buddies stumble through jump-scared crypts and ruins, with teamwork optional and misery guaranteed.

What players say

Players enjoy the co-op chaos but find the difficulty uneven, with a punishing timer and long runs. The pixel art style is charming, though some wish for smoother graphics. There are concerns about balance and bugs like loot theft.
