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 lonely, punishing crawl through a hand-drawn underground kingdom where every corner hides a new threat and discovery.

What players say
Players praise the combat, atmosphere and music, but many flag the high difficulty and lack of direction. Reviews are split on the exploration: some love getting lost, others hate the backtracking and sparse save points.
