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 classic, earnest fantasy RPG made by a single developer, with modest production values and a dense, interwoven narrative.

What players say

An RPG Maker souls-like with turn-based combat and hidden secrets, but players are split: some love the old-school discovery and deep content, while others rage at the slow walking speed outside towns, random encounters, lack of guidance in its large map, and difficulty spikes like the rolling boulders.
