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 relaxing but punishing open-world magic adventure where you explore, fight, and solve riddles, often dying if you don't pay attention.

What players say

Players are drawn to the game's vibrant cartoon look and dark story, but they consistently struggle with brutal difficulty, instant-death traps, and having to restart areas from scratch. The game is clearly early in development, with incomplete features, minimal guidance, and some poor keyboard controls for menu navigation.
