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 dark action-adventure RPG with a grim atmosphere.

What players say

Players are sharply split on controls and readability. Many with keyboard and mouse find the game unplayable due to no aim assist, stiff controls, and hard-to-see red health bars, while a few praise the smooth performance on deck and PC. Some enjoy the punishing loop and compare it to Hades, but several say the content feels thin and the game needs more work.
