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 criticize the game for a lack of major updates for years, pointing to the same dungeons and content since 2013. The 2024 removal of Chinese language support drew angry reviews, with players feeling abandoned. Many also report a high barrier for newcomers due to veteran players with powerful cards and a bot-infested environment, while some enjoy the community and classic MMORPG feel.
