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 lighthearted, turn-based card-battling RPG with colorful hand-drawn visuals and a humorous blend of fantasy and steampunk robots.

What players say

Players enjoy the deckbuilding and each character's distinct mechanics, but many find the plot forgettable and the jokes corny. Some report the animations are too slow without a speed-up option.
