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 fast, comedic turn-based RPG with retro pixel graphics and a rogue-lite structure that keeps each playthrough snappy and unpredictable.

What players say

Players compare Dream Warrior to a mix of Dragon Quest and FTL, praising its short but replayable runs with unlockable classes and multiple endings. The turn-based combat emphasizes strategy over rock-paper-scissors, and the game is seen as a laid-back, nostalgic experience with good writing.
