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, tactical puzzle-cum-card-battler where every move on the grid and every card drawn feels like a careful gamble against shifting, dream-like threats.

What players say

Players compare Demon's Mirror to Slay the Spire with a match-3 board for resources, but opinions split: some find the blend addictive and smart, others say the energy costs and double RNG make fights tedious. Long-time players note a lack of content beyond three characters.
