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 2D platformer that feels like exploring an ancient, mysterious world with interconnected levels and a sense of restoring order.

What players say

Players are split on this retro metroidvania with an Egyptian theme. Some enjoy the challenge and exploration, while others find the combat unpolished and the difficulty more frustrating than fair. The game's length is around 15-20 hours for casual play.
