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 poker roguelike that feels like a strategic puzzle of building joker synergies to outscore increasingly tough blinds.

What players say
Players call this a brilliantly addictive poker-like roguelike where you build a scoring engine with jokers and deck manipulation. It is accessible even to those who do not know poker, though some reviews note that the highest difficulty feels too reliant on restarting for good luck.
