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 fast-paced, combat-focused roguelike where each death empowers you to fight harder in a decaying fantasy world.

What players say

Players praise the core combat as satisfying and snappy, but nearly everyone agrees the game lacks content and gets repetitive quickly. There are complaints about damage-sponge bosses, bugs, and a general unfinished feel, though the low price tag earns some leniency.
