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 cute art and warm story, but many find the Paper Mario-like combat tedious because you can only attack by guarding or countering, making fights drag. Some note the floaty jump controls are frustrating and that one sister is possessed for much of the game, which disappoints fans.
