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
You cautiously descend deeper into a hostile underground, knowing one mistake can end your run but the promise of treasure keeps you mining and fighting onward.

What players say
Players are split on Below the Stone. Some enjoy the addictive mining and challenging void, but many criticize it for shallow progression, no skill tree, and a punishing extraction system that can erase an hour of work. Long-time early access players note the game has received updates over time, though some still find it lacking direction.
