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 frantic typing gauntlet where every keystroke is a defensive command and the pressure escalates with each wave.

What players say

Players praise TYPE as a fresh, unique take on typing games that blends roguelike progression with missile-command style defense. Early builds had bugs and AI-content concerns, but updates through late 2025 resolved most complaints. The game is difficult, especially for slow typists, and players note it is not dyslexia-friendly.
