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 lighthearted tactical auto-battler where you build and mutate a scrappy goblin squad to rescue friends.

What players say

Players find this a clever autobattler-roguelike that is satisfying to theory-craft builds for, though many note it feels like early access with little to do after a win. Some report sound not working.
