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 lighthearted, story-driven 16-bit RPG where you explore a fantasy world, solve puzzles, and manage a party with a whimsical tone.

What players say

Players are split: some find it a sweet, relaxing RPG with a good story, others call it a low-effort RPGMaker asset flip with unbalanced combat and overly large dungeons.
