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, tactical dungeon crawler where every run feels fresh and deadly, rewarding careful play with emergent surprises and punishing mistakes with instant death.

What players say

Players praise the procedural generation and tense exploration, but many find the movement slippery and the difficulty punishing. Some report achievements not unlocking, locking content behind a bug. Others note that runs offer little variety in weapons or abilities.
