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 relentless, gothic boomer shooter where every corridor oozes dread and magic weapons feel brutal and satisfying.

What players say

Players see potential in the Heretic-style art and atmosphere, but nearly all agree the core gamefeel is rough, movement, shooting, and enemy AI all need overhauls. A few note it is short and the early access still shows jank like auto-saves in deadly lava.
