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 simple, nostalgic RPGMaker adventure that feels like a quirky, low-stakes treasure hunt through a world where Japanese characters double as collectible rewards.

What players say
Players call it a faithful SNES-style JRPG with a twist: roughly 1,900 kanji are hidden as optional collectibles. The game rewards exploration with cosmetic upgrades, but some find the pacing slow and the long walks between areas tedious.
