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 challenging action roguelike set in a mythological Chinese dungeon, where each run feels tense and repetitive as you battle through procedurally generated rooms.

What players say

Players largely agree the developer abandoned the game in 2018 after a big update, leaving it stuck in early access. Supporters praise its Chinese mythology theme and compare it favorably to Binding of Isaac, but complaints about poor translation and the unfinished state are common.
