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 nostalgic, story-heavy martial arts RPG with a classic feel and turn-based combat, but only in Chinese.

What players say

Players find it a clear step down from the first game, with simpler dungeons, weaker story pacing, and frustrating difficulty spikes in random fights while bosses are too easy. Long-time fans play it mostly to complete the series story, and some report crashes.
