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, atmospheric roguelike where each hand of blackjack feels like a life-or-death gamble against a sinister dealer in a dark basement casino.

What players say

Players praise the horror-blackjack concept but find it dragged down by unskippable cutscenes and repeated dialogue that slow the pace. Comparisons to Cloverpit are common, and many say the execution needs polish, though the low price point earns some leniency.
