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, strategic card-battler that demands careful deck-building and risk-reward decisions across procedurally generated runs.

What players say
Players agree it sets the standard for roguelike deckbuilders, calling it deeply addictive and endlessly replayable. The four characters play so differently the game feels like four games in one, but some find runs too luck-dependent and the ascension grind lacking motivation.
