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.

What players say

Players praise the mix of autobattler combat with open world exploration, calling it a refreshing blend of strategy and RPG that borrows from Heroes of Might and Magic. Many note it is short for a single run but highly replayable, though some mention rough edges like typos, limited inventory, and gear that can disappear.
