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 charming, story-driven RPG with a lighthearted fantasy war plot, witty dialogue, and turn-based combat.

What players say

Players split on The Legend of Bean. Some enjoy its silly comedy and find the story humorous, while others criticize it as a basic RPG Maker game with a poor translation. An update to the battle system made it easier and more enjoyable for some.
