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 side-scrolling tactical RPG where careful positioning and elevation dictate the flow of turn-based combat.

What players say

Players enjoy the clever side-scrolling twist on tactics and the flexible class system, but many warn of a heavy grind for skills and a sudden difficulty spike in later chapters. The story is widely called forgettable, and long-time players note that the developers have abandoned the game without updates.
