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 playful and quirky action RPG where you experiment by hurling random objects at enemies, discovering their hidden stats through trial and error.

What players say

Players love the absurd freedom to pick up nearly everything, buildings, monsters, NPCs, and use or sell it. The game is short, about 7 to 10 hours, and light on story, but the novelty and humor carry it. Some warn that the roguelike dungeon lacks autosave, so crash can lose progress.
