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, serene visual novel with emotionally resonant character stories set in a gently dark fantasy world.

What players say

Players call it more a visual novel than a game, with excellent writing and characterization but very little gameplay. It is short, around 2 to 3 hours, and fans of Roadwarden enjoy returning to the world, though some find it too limited in scope and overpriced for the length.
