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

You frantically smash everything with a pickaxe, bound to a partner by an unbreakable tether, scraping coins to get strong enough to clear the next dungeon before death resets your progress.

What players say

Players describe a simple dungeon crawler where you clear 20 portals by hitting enemies and objects. The first 4 levels are a tutorial, and the game opens up after that. Controls are janky, and getting stuck in trees is common. Multiplayer is dead. Some say it is a decent time-waster, others find it too simple and forgettable.
