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, turn-based tactical RPG where careful planning and trap placement meet a lighthearted, anime-style story.

What players say

Players call it a competent Fire Emblem clone, especially like the GBA games, with a well-tuned hard mode that demands careful resource use. The lack of permadeath and self-repairing weapons are praised as quality-of-life improvements, though the music is repetitive and the keyboard-only controls feel clunky.
