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 deliberate, story-heavy tactical RPG where each skirmish feels like a desperate war of attrition.

What players say

Players compare it to Fire Emblem (Three Houses) and King's Bounty 2. Combat uses Heroes 3-style grid tactics with camp management and a weapon triangle. Many finish in about 50 hours. Opinions split hard on the writing: some praise the story, others call it terrible. The art style and lip-sync are rough, and the game is fairly linear with repetitive fortress fights.
