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 methodical, dark fantasy dungeon crawl where you make careful tactical decisions between grid-based encounters, gradually building your character through loot and levelling.

What players say

Players call this a short, simple roguelike that can be finished in about six hours, though many wish it were longer. The RNG is a sticking point: some say the dice rolls feel unfair, while others see the challenge as learning the order to tackle rooms. The need to restart from the beginning on death divides players.
