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.

What players say

Players enjoy the unique squad positioning and composition mechanics that set this survivor roguelike apart. The difficulty is high early on, but unlocks and smart builds make it rewarding. Some report bugs like falling into pits and getting stuck. The content is limited but the game is fun for short sessions.
