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 faithful recreation of a classic dungeon-crawler where each run feels distinct and tense due to permadeath and procedural levels.

About
Rogue is a dungeon-crawling adventure originally developed in the early 1980s, known for introducing procedurally generated levels and permadeath, which defined the "roguelike" genre. In this game, players explore the Dungeons of Doom, battling monsters and collecting treasure in a quest for the Amulet of Yendor. The Nintendo Switch port recreates Epyx's Amiga version, featuring pixel-art graphics and optional CRT filters for a retro aesthetic, along with background music that can be toggled on or off. This version stays faithful to the original gameplay while utilizing modern hardware for a smoother visual experience.
