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 casual, relaxed sandbox RPG where you explore a fantasy seaside town, complete quests, and uncover a mystery through collectable diaries and seasonal weather changes.

What players say

Players praise the story and mystery, calling it engaging with a surprising twist, and enjoy the fishing, cooking, and building systems. They note the game is a solo project and still rough in early access, with combat described as clunky and many tasks feeling like fetch quests.
