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 thoughtful puzzle-roguelike where each match of jewels fuels your spells and relics, rewarding careful planning and combo-chaining.

What players say

Players say this match-3 roguelite stands out for requiring exact match orders, with each enemy demanding a specific strategy. The game offers both turn-based and real-time modes, but RNG in early runs and a few overpowered abilities create frustration. Long-time players note that endless mode can crash during long, high-power runs.
