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 cooperative dungeon crawler where careful team coordination and combined skills are essential to overcome procedural challenges.

What players say

Players say it is a shallow, co-op-focused dungeon crawler kept afloat only by its card-based character creation and quick missions, while the lack of story, companion control, and polish makes it feel unfinished. Many compare it unfavorably to earlier The Dark Eye games like Drakensang.
