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 methodical dungeon crawl combined with shop management and light puzzle solving.

What players say
Players say this RPG Maker game takes the Recettear formula but focuses more on dungeon crawling and crafting than shop management. The reaction is split: some see potential after early patches, but others report persistent bugs like black screens and corrupted saves that make the game unplayable.
