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 tense dungeon crawl through procedurally generated hellscapes, mixing deliberate combat with the pressure of rogue-lite permadeath.

What players say

Players are split on this early access dungeon crawler. Some see potential in its roguelike structure and souls-like combat, but more warn it is unfinished: combat is stiff and buggy with missing hit detection, achievements often do not unlock, there is no tutorial, and non-English fonts display as corrupted boxes. Developer Diablo 1 inspiration is noted, but reviewers say execution is poor.
