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 hands-off, minimalist RPG where you strategically manage potions and abilities while an AI autonomously explores and fights through a dark, ominous world.

What players say

Players describe it as an idle RPG with ASCII graphics where you automate combat and resource gathering. A unique feature is the programming system to control your character's actions. The music is praised and long-time players enjoy the buildcrafting.
