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 casual, story-driven RPG with a retro steampunk aesthetic, featuring turn-based combat and a female protagonist navigating a conflict in a whimsical yet oppressive world.

What players say

Players praise the story and characters but split on balance and difficulty. The threat meter combat and visible encounters are highlights, while some find the controls clunky and the lack of respawning enemies too limiting.
