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 meditative turn-based strategy RPG set in a pixelated space colony, where exploration and lore unfold through text and tactical choices.

What players say

Players praise the sci-fi story, calling it a mix of classic JRPGs and Mass Effect, and highlight the huge 7-character party and deep customization. They note the game is linear and around 20 hours long, but some find the tactical ship battles slow and uneven difficulty spikes.
