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 brisk, punishing dungeon crawl where each procedural run demands tactical turn-based decisions and mastery within a tight hour-long session.

What players say

Players praise the game for being an accessible traditional roguelike with quick runs and surprising tactical depth, though some feel the developer's balance changes have made it a tedious slog and that certain enemy types, like healers and summoners, can ruin runs with bad luck.
