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 gentle, narrative-focused RPG where you guide an ordinary farmer through a fantasy world at a relaxed pace, with light strategic choices and character customization.

What players say
Players praise the story and characters, calling it a solid old-school RPG Maker game with a bittersweet ending. Some note that the final boss is easier than earlier dungeon bosses, and enemies respawn when leaving an area.
