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 gentle spell of forest foraging that slowly thickens into eerie mystery and dungeon crawling.

What players say

Players praise the charming art, cute story, and voice acting, but many consider the full game a repetitive, grindy dungeon crawler that lets down its whimsical opening hours. Controls are awkward and the price is high for what is offered.
