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 whimsical yet punishing turn-based RPG where you play as a deluded villain, requiring precise timing and careful choices in a cosmic quest.

What players say

Players say the game prioritizes atmosphere over explanation, with turn-based combat that relies on quick-time timing and tight parry windows. The soundtrack and art are widely praised, while opinions split on whether the gameplay clicks. Some note the combat can feel repetitive and that multiple playthroughs are needed to understand the story.
