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 tense, turn-based puzzle of survival where every move balances upgrading with dodging monsters.

What players say
Players describe a minimalist puzzle-dungeon-crawler where success feels more like luck than strategy due to heavy RNG in combat and spellbooks. Many complain about missing settings, windowed-only play, and a lack of tutorial, though some appreciate the challenge once they memorize fixed level patterns.
