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 high-pressure mix of real-time tactical combat and roguelite fleet management where every decision balances survival against overwhelming pursuit.

What players say

Players are split on this Battlestar Galactica roguelite. Many love the combat and how it captures the show's tension, but a loud chorus says the relentless crisis system and difficulty spikes make runs feel hopeless.
