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 gentle, low-pressure 2D role-playing game focused on casual adventure, base-building, and helping others in a post-apocalyptic setting.

What players say

Players split on this doomsday management game. Some enjoy the casual roguelike loop, but many complain about poor combat controls, NPC AI that stands idle, and a punishing economy where raids drain supplies. Several note the game uses AI-generated art and has a fake audio slider. Workshop support is appreciated but not enough to offset the rough design.
