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 straightforward dungeon crawl with grid-based movement and a fantasy setting, offering a moderate challenge for both newcomers and veterans.

What players say

Players are nearly unanimous that the developer abandoned the game after years of early access, with updates stalling and promises broken. Those who enjoy it say it channels classic dungeon crawlers like Dungeon Master and Eye of the Beholder with challenging puzzles, but others find the combat dull and the UI unhelpful.
