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

You fight through hell as a displaced soul, dodging relentless projectiles and upgrading your attacks in a fast, punishing 2D action roguelike.

What players say

Players find Grave Deceiver addictive but note it demands the right perk build, making the last boss feel like a difficulty spike. Some say the game is too short, and an update that added perk rarity made key abilities harder to find.
