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 slow-burn strategy game where you carefully manage letters and resources to defeat enemies, feeling more like a cerebral puzzle than a fast-paced card battler.

What players say
Players describe it as Slay the Spire meets Scrabble, with solid mechanics that let you assign any word to attack or block. Opinions split on balance: some find enemy actions unavoidable and the dictionary too limited, while others praise the tactical depth and three unique characters.
