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 fast-paced, cooperative dungeon crawler where you fight to survive against increasingly frenzied beasts, emphasizing skill and gear progression.

What players say

Players call Rotwood a fun co-op beat-em-up with great art and animations, but performance issues make the controls feel 'muddy' or delayed. Complaints center on grinding for weapon mastery, short runs that end before builds come together, and repetitive content in early access.
