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 frantic, top-down RPG where you constantly flee impending doom while customizing characters and crafting equipment pixel by pixel.

What players say

Players praise the large cast of 14 party members, deep crafting systems, and dozens of hours of content for fans of old-school turn-based RPGs. They note the gathering skills (mining, fishing) are grindy and tedious, and the lack of a sprint button slows exploration. Some mention game-breaking glitches if you exit a certain late-game town, and all achievements are currently non-functional.
