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 tense tactical stealth game where you carefully listen and plan each move to survive procedurally generated haunted halls.

What players say

Players split on the difficulty. Some call it a clever puzzle-roguelike where memorizing enemy audio and item effects is key, others find the tiny inventory and slow backtracking grindy. The 2026 version adds the transformation mechanic over the earlier game, and many enjoy the resource-hoarding tension, while a few are frustrated by sparse tutorials and the online scoreboard's lag.
