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 stylized fairy-tale platformer with retro-inspired hack-and-slash combat, exploration of randomly generated corridors, and gradual sword upgrades through collected magic shards.

What players say
Players consistently call Broken Blades very difficult, especially at the start. Many mention the lack of checkpoints or map, and some note you cannot buy shields. Fans praise the unique growing sword mechanic and randomized enemy placement, while others find the difficulty frustrating and quit early.
