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 grim, fast-paced action-adventure where you fight monsters and undead as a plague doctor, with strategic upgrades and loot hunting.

What players say

Players like the plague doctor aesthetic and music, but find the gameplay highly repetitive and similar to a mobile game. The upgrade grind is a sore point, and some call it boring after half an hour, though a few players sink many hours into it.
