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 methodical, turn-based strategy game that blends chess-like positioning with roguelike progression, demanding careful planning and adaptation.

What players say
Players say this chess-roguelike succeeds at making novel piece abilities feel balanced, but they disagree on the boss difficulty curve as the first boss can spike hard. The runs are short and strategic, though some wish for more depth and polish in the interface to show potential moves.
