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 frantic, punishing hack-and-slash through a gorgeously grim ukiyo-e hellscape.

What players say

Players compare it to Dead Cells but say it is clunkier and more deliberate, with a heavy feel and repetitive combat that depends heavily on the weapon. The ukiyo-e visuals are widely praised, but behind that players are split on whether the loop works, some say it is unrewarding and many also note the game feels unfinished.
