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 tense, methodical action RPG where precise combat and punishing difficulty define the struggle through a crumbling gothic kingdom.

What players say

Players praise the fast, parry-heavy combat and the lack of a stamina bar, but agree it is very short and has repetitive enemy variety. The story is forgettable and exploration feels tedious. Some find the difficulty spike frustrating, while others call it on the easier side.
