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 nostalgic, loot-driven dungeon crawl with deliberate turn-based combat and a sense of unraveling a forgotten world's secrets.

What players say
Players appreciate the retro aesthetic and random loot, but the durability system and enemy scaling draw consistent criticism. Combat is described as shallow and repetitive, with a short story that lacks depth. Some praise the developer's active bug-fixing.
