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 tense, turn-based death-sport where every move matters and one mistake means permadeath for your team.

What players say

Players describe it as a clever blend of Into the Breach and Blood Bowl, but overwhelmingly find it too easy to beat in one or two runs. The tactical depth is shallow, upgrades feel limited, and unlocking new teams barely changes the experience, so most say it is fun only for a few hours.
