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 playful and whimsical deck-building puzzle where you craft combos to deal burst damage in a wonderland-inspired card battler.

What players say

Players describe this as Balatro with anime girls and a gacha system, but opinions split on whether it is generous or pay-to-win. The game forces borderless fullscreen with no resizing, and long-time players note you cannot check pickup character info from the banner.
