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 2D RPG with turn-based combat and a classic fantasy quest, feeling like a throwback to retro JRPGs.

What players say
Players are split on this RPG Maker JRPG that runs short at 5 to 12 hours. Some praise its exploration and equipment, while others complain of unfair early battles with poison, bugs like broken fullscreen audio and a tiny window, and a tedious backtrack through empty dungeons.
