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, tense climb where every attack must be carefully aimed and timed, and every coin spent or saved can mean the difference between revival and permadeath.

What players say

Players consistently say the game is painfully slow, from movement to combat and even opening doors. They also report missing music, unexplained mechanics, and enemies that are faster and stronger than the player.
