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

Deck Hunter feels like a deliberate, turn-based card battler where each run demands thoughtful deck building against a backdrop of lighthearted fantasy lore.

What players say

Players say Deck Hunter was abandoned before it was finished. The core deckbuilding ideas are interesting but underdeveloped with placeholder art and no card synergies. The development stopped around 2022 and the solo developer went silent.
