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

You freely explore a vast fantasy world, choosing your own pace from questing to farming to boss battles, in a classic point-and-click MMORPG.

What players say

Players are deeply split: many love the core gameplay and endless content but strongly criticize the aggressive paywall, with nearly all meaningful content locked behind a costly membership. Long-time players lament recent price increases and the removal of features like wilderness events, while others praise the removal of microtransactions and a promising roadmap.
