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 fast-paced VR spell-slinging duel where you physically chant and pose to cast magic, balancing movement and resources while chatting with AI characters.

What players say

Players enjoy the voice-activated spellcasting with friends, but many report the voice recognition is unreliable and the tutorial is confusing. The game lacks graphics settings and controller binding customization, and some players experience network issues.
