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 slow, methodical dungeon-crawling clicker that feels like tending a strange, dark garden where every run reshapes the path ahead.

What players say

Players are split on this dungeon crawler. Some enjoy the gradual shift from simple resource gathering to deeper management and story, finding the loop satisfying. Others feel the grinding becomes excessive and the gameplay doesn't evolve enough, with a few pointing out quality-of-life issues like no vsync and a tough final boss.
