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 tense and weird deckbuilder where you gamble your character's sanity to summon a motley crew and survive bizarre sea encounters.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, free deckbuilder with 3 starter decks and an insanity mechanic that acts as a timer. Most finish in a couple of hours and find little replayability, with some calling it unfinished or a proof of concept. Reviews note odd dead time between turns and the inability to edit decks limits strategy.
