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 methodical, turn-based deckbuilder where each campaign feels like a slow-burn strategic puzzle of troop management and card-based decisions.

What players say

Players find the card roguelike fun and the combo system clever, but the early access version feels thin with short runs, punishing RNG on maps and relics, a grindy unlock system, and no meaningful further progression once completed. Several call out AI-generated art as visually distracting.
