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

It feels like a nostalgic, turn-based JRPG from the 8-bit era, with pixel graphics and relaxed exploration through classic fantasy locales.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, faithful throwback to early Final Fantasy games with no random encounters and visible enemies that don't respawn. They like the retro feel but note the cliche writing and predictable plot, and a few warn about a softlock bug in the castle.
