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 tactical, turn-based RPG where you carefully plan server-by-server corporate sabotage in a dark, dystopian digital world.

What players say

Players describe a deeply intricate roguelike that builds on 868-HACK with new meta-layers and a hacking theme. The early hours are rough, but the simple rules unfold into complex combos that make runs feel fresh. Reviews praise the tight scoring, risk-reward decisions, and banger soundtrack, though the community is small.
