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 describe Ghost Castle as a free old-school roguelite FPS where you play as a ninja fighting yokai. Reviews are split on quality: some find it a surprisingly challenging and addictive dungeon crawler, while others call it repetitive with samey procedurally generated levels and borrowed assets.
