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 slow-burn, stat-heavy progression game where you watch your DnD-style party automate battles while you manage crafting, training, and upgrades without ever resetting progress.

What players say

Players are split on this idle game. Some enjoy it as a simple background timewaster, but many say it becomes repetitive quickly with no rebirth mechanic and all levels playing the same. Multiple reviewers report that the game has not been updated in years and feels abandoned, with some progress-wiping bugs still present.
