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 methodical, turn-based dungeon crawl with permadeath, set in a steampunk world of colorful pixel art and smart gadgets, where each death teaches you something new.

What players say

Players describe it as a janky but charming traditional roguelike with a huge variety of items and a unique gear mechanic. The humor and writing get consistent praise, though many admit the game is confusing at first. It runs on Steam Deck with control tweaks, and the forgiving fast travel offsets a tight inventory limit.
