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 hands-off fantasy RPG where battles play out automatically and progress accrues even when you step away, encouraging passive management over moment-to-moment action.

What players say

Players split on this idle loot game. Many enjoy leaving it running at work and like the gear and preview tools, but others say classes feel identical, progression becomes trivial within hours, and there is little real build variety.
