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 are deeply split on this old-school remake. Some love the faithful, punishing classic CRPG design, while others call it horribly clunky, buggy, and tedious with long travel times, confusing navigation, and an early-game event that permanently removes all your equipment. Performance issues and crashes persist even after updates.
