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 brisk, card-driven dungeon crawl where each short run blends roguelike strategy with poker-style decision-making.

What players say

Players enjoy this free card-based roguelike for its poker hand combat and low-stakes runs, though some find it too simple compared to Slay the Spire. A crashing bug that reappeared frustrates long-time players, and completionists complain about a tedious final achievement.
