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

Navigating a procedurally generated underwater maze, you balance resource management and turn-based combat in a steampunk submarine, driven by loans and commissions.

What players say

Players compare it to a simplified Curious Expedition with a dice-based combat system, but say the lack of a map and unreachable time limits make navigation frustrating and early death frequent. Opinions split on difficulty, some find it too punishing while others call it manageable. Long-time players report development stalled with no updates since launch.
