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 laid-back pixel-art survival adventure that spirals into chaotic, choice-driven emergencies on the high seas.

What players say

Players compare it to Oregon Trail at sea, with a Sid Meier's Pirates! influence. The game is punishing, you die a lot and learn by failing, but rewarding for those who persist. Fans praise the charming pixel art, soundtrack, and fantasy mode that adds extra content, though some find the loop grindy and wish for better tutorials.
