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 deliberate, retro-styled dungeon crawl with crafting and exploration through a broken fantasy world, played at a measured pace with turn-based encounters.

What players say

Players enjoy the exploration and crafting loop, but many get stuck on scenery objects and the map is hard to read. The 3D dungeons all look similar, which makes navigation frustrating, and frequent saving is recommended.
