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 fast-paced, chaotic dungeon crawler where you hurl skulls and slash through procedurally generated levels with darkly humorous mayhem and constant risk of permadeath.

What players say

Players say the game is fun in short bursts but feels shallow and repetitive. The unique head-throwing mechanic and satisfying combat are highlights, while weapon balance is lopsided and the stone loss penalty annoys some. Many recommend buying on sale.
