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 methodical puzzle-like roguelike where you carefully arrange items in your backpack to boost their power while exploring dungeons and rebuilding your town.

What players say
Players love the core backpack-management idea, but agree the game was left unfinished after 1.0. Many find the story mode slow and prefer quick play, though they praise the addictive "one more run" loop. Opinions split on build variety, with some seeing little depth and others finding enough to sink hours in.
