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 dark, challenging dungeon crawler where magic builds feel pressured by escalating difficulty and the need to push further with each run.

What players say

Players enjoy the shadow-based movement and the stalking wall that keeps the action tense. The game is short and players quickly get overpowered, with the final boss feeling underwhelming. Some note a learning curve and one reviewer found a cat-rescue subplot.
