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 lighthearted yet increasingly chaotic romp where you laugh at silly monsters that get smarter and deadlier with each run.

What players say

Players praise the cute hand-drawn art and find the game addictive, but reviews are split on its depth. Monsters gain perks while the player does not, which some find rewarding and others call a grind. Long-time players report development stalled and the game remains in early access with no updates, leading to calls for it to be removed from sale.
