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.

What players say

Players praise Gemwielders as a strategic deckbuilder that blends TCG and roguelike elements into competitive 1v1 matches. They highlight the balance, the unique watercolor art, but some note the online player base is small and the presentation outside of gameplay is basic.
