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 fantasy action RPG with flashy combat and a world that encourages off-path exploration.

What players say

Players describe METRIA as a mobile-style gacha ARPG plagued by excessive loading screens and a dead community. Many find the intro slow and boring, while late-game players report the story cuts off with an 'wait for update' message. There is disagreement on whether the game is fun despite its flaws, but virtually everyone notes the aggressive microtransactions and lack of a proper pity system.
