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 challenging, dark fantasy action game where deliberate parries and exploration of large interconnected maps reveal a fragmented story and dual-form boss fights.

What players say
Players compare Deepening Fire to Salt and Sanctuary, and most agree it is a parry-focused game where timing is controversial, some find it satisfying, others call it janky and inconsistent. The game lacks a map, which frustrates many, and difficulty spikes sharply in the second half, especially on higher settings. Movement feels stiff to some, though it runs well on Steam Deck for a few players.
