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 slow-paced, mystical farming RPG where you tend a living world, explore hand-crafted caves, and unravel a long story through combat, magic, and character interactions.

What players say

Players praise the solo developer for being responsive and adding content based on feedback. The game offers a unique blend of farming, magic, and exploration with a world that changes with seasons, though progression starts slow. Graphics are divisive and deck support has problems. Some compare its vibe to Gothic meeting Stardew Valley.
