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 cute, anime-style casual roguelite where you actively fight monster swarms with magic and enchanted artifacts, unlocking skills and adapting to dynamic objectives.

What players say

Players call it a lightweight survivor-like with a cute anime style. They highlight the summon system and the variable objectives per level as standouts, but note the lack of auto-aim and some clunky controls. A few mention AI art is used. The low price is widely appreciated.
