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 modest turn-based card battler with roguelike deckbuilding, repetitive visuals, and a casual but punishing feel.

What players say

Players are split on difficulty: some call it too easy and broken, others find it punishing and luck-driven. The key mechanic is that your deck is your health, and you can choose encounters from a limited number of steps rather than following a map. Several mention stuttering animations causing motion sickness.
