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 methodical text-driven adventure where you guide a vengeful warrior through a gritty medieval world with tactical battles and diplomatic choices.

What players say

Players describe this as a short choose-your-own-adventure story with beautiful art and music by Danheim, but the turn-based combat is basic and many find the game too linear with little replay value.
