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 roguelike where you fight waves of enemies to level up and collect artefacts, building an army for increasingly challenging battles.

What players say

Players describe Kaiser as a free Vampire Survivors-like that was abandoned by its developer years ago, with no tutorial or explanation. The game starts challenging but quickly becomes broken as the player grows overpowered, often causing performance issues. Players are split on whether the short fun justifies the unfinished state.
