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 slow-burn, atmospheric strategy RPG that feels methodical and contemplative, with tension building quietly through careful resource management and tactical decisions.

What players say

Players praise Deluge as a compact, atmospheric RPG with a nonlinear story and multiple endings that reward replays. They note its short ~6 hour length and straightforward but tactical turn-based combat. Some mention having to look up late-game puzzles, and it runs on Steam Deck with a control remap.
