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 fast-paced, retro-inspired hybrid that blends chaotic hack-and-slash combat with roguelite progression and heavy loot focus.

What players say

Players describe a short, easy action RPG with retro pixel art and simple story. They praise its charm and fun pick-up-and-play combat, but note it gets repetitive toward the end and has some framerate drops in late dungeons.
