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 lighthearted, story-driven RPG with turn-based combat and a quirky fantasy world.

What players say

Players largely enjoy this short indie RPG for its old-school feel and unique turn-based combat that uses stamina and equipped items. They praise the story, characters, and soundtrack, but note there is no character leveling, progress comes from buying gear and potions. Some find the combat repetitive later and interiors recycled.
