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 tense and atmospheric dungeon crawl where every turn-based encounter and randomized trap feels punishing yet strategic, with a lurking sense of mystery and decay.

What players say

Players praise the tactical boss rush design and hand-drawn art, but warn that early access leaves content unfinished and the difficulty can feel unfair. Fans of Darkest Dungeon and Slay the Spire will find familiar challenge and experimentation.
