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

Deliberate tactical combat with a realtime feel, navigating procedurally generated dungeons where every decision carries weight due to permanent death.

What players say

Players enjoy the loot-box-driven progression and generated worlds, with many spending 40-50 hours. The overworld is small with invisible edges, controls can be finnicky with the mouse, and players split on value: some see it as a fair price, others suggest a lower one.
