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

Exploring procedurally generated dungeons with puzzles and enemies in a dark, mythological setting, feeling tense and methodical.

What players say

Players enjoy the puzzle-focused roguelike gameplay with no combat, only running away from enemies. Most find it challenging and fun for its short length of about two hours, though one calls the mechanics minimal.
