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 solo developer's linear action RPG that feels like a nostalgic homage to 1990s dungeon crawlers, with colorful cartoon visuals and straightforward hack-and-slash combat.

What players say
Players praise the classic ARPG feel with RuneScape and Diablo inspirations, funny writing, and a solo dev's dedication. The mouse-driven controls divide opinion, and some find enemy hitboxes and the inventory clunky. It is early-access with minor bugs, but reviewers say nothing game-breaking.
