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 top-down river voyage blends relaxed sailing with turn-based tactical combat, colorful fantasy visuals, and procedural exploration as you gather a party and collect mysterious stones.

What players say
Players are split, many loving the idea but frustrated by execution. The raft controls are widely panned, the early access feels abandoned to some, and a forced Epic Games login angered several. Long-time fans of the studio praise the atmosphere, but others find the gameplay repetitive and the tutorial broken.
