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 slow-burning, atmospheric old-school dungeon crawl through gothic and Egyptian horror realms, with deliberate party-based combat and a sense of lurking dread.

What players say

Players say these 1994 dungeon crawlers hold up mainly for retro fans, praising the gothic horror atmosphere and tight dungeon crawling. But they warn the combat is clunky, level-draining enemies are frustrating, and hidden buttons make puzzles tedious. Some find the nostalgia wears thin, while others recommend them to anyone who enjoyed Grimrock or Eye of the Beholder.
