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 challenging and story-driven JRPG-inspired adventure that feels like a transformative journey of self-discovery through vibrant environments.

What players say

Players praise the art style and fun combat but are split on value, calling it overpriced and janky due to a rushed release. The turn-based RPG is grindy with unbalanced difficulty spikes, and the metroidvania navigation feels awkward at first.
