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 and methodical survival action RPG where you stealthily hunt for blood, build a castle, and gradually grow from a weakened vampire into a powerful predator.

What players say

Players praise the combat, boss design, and base building, and the customizable world settings let you tailor the difficulty. However, opinions split on the grind: some find it rewarding while others consider it a frustration. Performance and controller support draw criticism, and late in its life players note that new content has stopped.
