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 praise the satisfying combat and skill tree progression, but they split on the difficulty: common enemies feel easy while bosses, especially the Wolf Doctor, spike hard and feel like a different game. Some note the fire build is overpowered and the run length feels short at three stages. The English translation and some UI bugs draw criticism.
