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, retro-styled action RPG where careful combat and exploration are rewarded through punishing but fair fights.

What players say

Players praise the old-school Zelda and Dark Souls-inspired design, but warn about clunky menus and limited saving. Difficulty spikes sharply, and spreading stats evenly can make the game unplayable. It went free after a paid launch.
