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

Balancing base-building and resource management with turn-based tactical combat, the game feels like guiding a charming but beleaguered tribe through a darkly humorous fantasy world where every choice carries weight.

What players say

Players praise the art, music and narration but widely agree the game is buggy, has save issues, and was abandoned by developers. Many say it is too grindy and repetitive, with a few comparing it to a lighter Darkest Dungeon. Opinions split on whether the charm outweighs the flaws.
