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 are deeply split on Solenars Edge Rebirth. Some praise the story, humor, and strategic combat, while others call it a low-effort RPG Maker game with atrocious mapping, cliched writing, and no ability to backtrack. The game has drawn controversy over its single achievement being toggled on and off by the developer, which several reviews call unprofessional.
