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 fast-paced adventure that combines frantic real-time combat with deep, puzzle-like inventory management, rewarding clever item mergers and build experimentation.

What players say

Players enjoy the fast-paced inventory management and spell-combining mechanics, but nearly everyone says the campaign is very short at around 2–3 hours, with little replay value. The story is hard to follow, and there is no in-game record of spell combinations.
