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.

What players say

Players describe Zima as a cozy and relaxing RPG with a charming atmosphere and soundtrack, well worth the low price. The combat focuses on movement and dungeons have three temples with no in-game map, forcing players to navigate by memory or on paper. Some players report bugs that can be worked around, but overall sentiment remains positive.
