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 lighthearted and accessible card game where building synergistic factions and quick battles feel casual yet deeply tactical.

What players say

Players describe Runeverse as an unpolished Hearthstone alternative that is fun but has a tiny playerbase, leading to long queue times and facing the same opponents repeatedly. Some note missing features like AI matches and tutorials, while long-time players say the removal of 3D card models and a canceled tournament hurt the game.
