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 are a street-smart thief tactically planning heists and engaging in moody, story-driven turn-based card battles in a post-cyberpunk noir world.

What players say

Players praise the story, characters, voice acting and art, but note the card combat is more about puzzle-solving than deep deckbuilding, and controls can feel clunky. The battle music is catchy but repetitive.
