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
You learn Japanese through answering quizzes that power up your hand-drawn, turn-based card battles against yokai.

What players say
Players enjoy the game as a fun way to learn Japanese through a Slay the Spire-like deckbuilder, praising the ability to customize what to study. However, many note that enemies are unbalanced, combat feels unfair due to no healing, and the game is still rough in early access with some crashes.
