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-paced, retro-inspired dungeon crawler with chiptune music and procedural maps that feels both nostalgic and modern.

What players say

Players describe this as a short but charming dungeon crawler blending Final Fantasy 1 and Wizardry. It takes about 5 to 12 hours, and while the postgame adds tougher bosses, players split on content depth. Some note unbalanced jobs and one recommends the sequel instead.
