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 tense battle of wits where you combine poker hands into escalating combos to survive dark fantasy dungeons.

What players say

Players praise the twist on poker hands and autobattler combat, with suit-based classes adding depth and chip/sticker combos enabling creative builds. Early access is rough: no save on exit, limited resolution options, and some joker encounters feel unfair, especially against the Life Joker.
