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 gothic action-adventure with exploration and combat through a dark fantasy mansion, driven by a narrative about a resurrected witch.

What players say

Players praise the DMC-inspired combo system and Vanillaware-like art, but warn about clunky controls, confusing map navigation, and a short story. The combat is satisfying once mastered, though some find it janky.
