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 heartfelt fairy tale adventure that feels like playing through a beautiful animated film, blending light kingdom management with cheerful exploration.

What players say

Players praise the Ghibli-inspired art and kingdom management, but they split on the story, some find it childish and predictable while others enjoy it. Combat is widely called janky, especially on keyboard and mouse, and late-game DLC content is seen as a tedious grind.
