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 straightforward top-down hack and slash where you methodically clear stages and upgrade skills to overcome increasingly tough demon foes.

What players say

Players report the game was completely rebuilt after launch, swapping a wizard class for a warrior one, and now plays as an idle-heavy grindfest. Early hours are fun but its core loop quickly demands auto-battle or macros for dozens of hours. Reviews split sharply on value, with some calling it a cheap way to kill an afternoon and others warning the endgame is empty.
