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 classic, colorful pixel-art MMORPG where you explore a persistent fantasy world, complete quests, and customize your character with friends.

What players say

Players are split. Some enjoy the retro charm, community, and simple grind, but many others call the game abandoned and barebones, with no minimap or quest markers, pay-to-win pressure, and slow movement that make it frustrating to play.
