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 classic Chinese RPG with a traditional turn-based combat system, pixel graphics, and a story steeped in mythology.

What players say

Players praise the cultural authenticity and music, but the combat is dominated by bosses who constantly heal, forcing grinding and repetitive use of one stamina skill for every character. Save files can disappear on reinstall.
