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, skill-based action game where you draw magical runes and use strategic combos to defeat opponents.

What players say

Players describe it as a rock-paper-scissors duel where you draw rune shapes to cast spells, but the swipe controls feel designed for a touchscreen and the gesture detection is unreliable. The single-player campaign is very short, around an hour, and the online multiplayer is dead.
