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 lengthy, story-driven RPG with strategic turn-based combat and an emotionally charged narrative arc.

What players say

Players are split on this finale. Many who finished the series call the true ending a satisfying payoff after a long journey, but others criticize excessive fanservice, a bloated story, and forced minigames like card games and Tetris-like puzzles that feel too difficult. Performance issues like screen tearing, especially at 120 FPS, are also noted.
