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 hands-off, loot-focused clicker where dice autonomously trigger skills on monsters.

What players say

Players enjoy the idle loop and can 100% it in about 35 hours, but reports of crashes past level 1400 and a bug that deletes inventory when closing a full bag mar the experience. Console and QoL complaints about menus not closing on escape are common.
