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.

What players say

Players are split on Curse of the Corsair. Some enjoy the fast-paced combat and dash mechanic, comparing it to Hyper Light Drifter, while others find the controls clunky and movement stilted. Several reviewers note bugs with item duplication, enemy AI, and progression flags, though the short playtime and free price point make these easier to overlook.
