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, unforgiving trek through a dark and dangerous fantasy world where every step could be your last.

What players say

Players call it a brutally hard roguelike where trap deaths are constant and funny when playing with friends. Cooperative play is the highlight, but solo runs feel unfair and punishing.
