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 strategic and quirky mix of puzzle-solving, mining, and light combat where you dig deeper into self-created shafts and build support systems.

About

In Ground Divers has players guiding the rabbit-like mining robot Tsuruhashi into increasingly complex mine shafts of their own creation. They'll be digging for "rare" matter as well as battling underground enemies, building Pit Relay Systems to help offer upgrades and supporting units along the way, and more.
