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

An action RPG that feels adventurous and mysterious, with a focus on exploration and mythological themes.

What players say

Players describe it as a unique metroidvania with rhythm-based combat, but note navigation is unclear and combat is easy except for some difficulty spikes. The lovecraftian story and 2D sprites in a 3D world stand out, with a playtime of 10-15 hours at a low price.
