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 tactically navigate a procedurally generated world, building a deck of skills and negotiating with chimeras in turn-based combat.

What players say

Players praise the game's simple yet deep deck-building mechanics and varied creatures. Many note it is challenging but rewarding, with each run feeling fresh. The early access state is rough but promising, and the music is repeatedly highlighted as excellent.
