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 methodical RPG Maker game where you climb a tower solving puzzles and battling monsters with a focus on stats and choices.

What players say

Players are split on this RPG Maker tower-defense puzzle game. Many appreciate the moving enemies and puzzle elements, but a lot hate the stamina system and the trial-and-error level design that forces repeated deaths. The poor English translation, lack of enemy stats, broken achievements, and a frustrating start screen are common complaints. Some find it a fun time-killer despite the flaws.
