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

Playing feels like directing a scrappy band of misfits through a darkly humorous, old-school tactical campaign where every battle is a puzzle and the narrative is delivered with a wink.

What players say

Players praise this RPG Maker title for its excellent combat balance and deep character customization across a large party. The story is light and silly, with humorous political references, but the game focuses on tight turn-based battles and rewarding itemization. Some players note the lack of crafting, a slow walk speed, and a difficulty spike before the final boss that requires grinding.
