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.

What players say

Players call this the fastest and most arcade-like Monster Hunter, with the wirebug adding freedom but also making it the easiest mainline game. Starting is slow and tutorials are sparse, so newcomers may struggle. Reviews are split on the 100龙夜行 tower-defense mode, and finding online matches can be tough. Performance is praised even on weak PCs.
