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, peaceful progression from humble beginnings to a bustling medieval town, with light strategic decisions and no intense pressure.

What players say

Players say the game was abandoned by its developer shortly after early access launch, leaving bugs and unfinished content that were never patched. The controls are clunky, character movement is slow, and the crafting system feels tedious, though some find the game relaxing for the price.
