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 desktop game that rewards planning and patience, unfolding battles and rewards while you work, feeling like a quiet companion that grows stronger with your focused sessions.

What players say

Players use it as a work timer that grows an idle RPG character, and many say it lifted their focus. It is an early access build with limited classes and content, a weak tutorial, and a minimum window size that bothers some. Fans split on depth, some call the roguelite loop strategic, others find it shallow after one world.
