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, tactical dungeon crawl where you methodically fight through demon-infested levels to restore justice.

What players say

Players describe it as a lightweight Diablo-inspired loot grinder with automatic combat and a tile-reveal exploration system. Many praise the addictive loop but report numerous bugs, including lost items when clicking too fast and missing cloud saves. An initial stamina limit drew heavy criticism and was removed shortly after launch, which the developer's quick updates partly redeemed.
