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 story-driven indie RPG that feels like a solitary journey through an atmospheric world.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and soundtrack, calling it a loving homage to SNES-era JRPGs like FF6 and Wild Arms. They are split on the linearity: some enjoy the focused story without grind, others find the first 15 hours too on-rails with encounters placed in the path. Combat is competent but not challenging, and a key mechanic unlocks after 12 hours.
