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 tense race against time where every tactical decision matters, as permadeath keeps the pressure on and failure resets everything.

What players say

Players praise the deep systems and rewarding strategy, but highlight a brutal difficulty curve, poor tutorials, and a grind for upgrades as barriers. Some report crashes and progression bugs, while others note the developer responds quickly on Discord.
