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, oppressive platformer where divine light turns hostile and every swing of the blade feels heavy with consequence.

What players say

Players are sharply divided: some call it a decent short action game with a unique art style and rewarding combat, but many warn of fake positive reviews, poor controls, no controller support, and AI-generated backgrounds. There are also complaints about the title piggybacking on Dead by Daylight, and it does not work on Linux.
