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 strategic survival game where you focus on planning and upgrades while your hero fights automatically in a dark, mysterious world.

What players say

Players praise the core concept as addictive and fun, but split on content depth, some say it is barebones and missing basic features like pause or settings, while others enjoy quick runs. The escape key ending a run is a common frustration.
