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, contemplative journey through a dense fantasy world where every object and character offers a tiny story, inviting you to piece together history at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the massive number of unique characters and equipment, the free-scenario structure without time limits, and the detailed world-building shown in flavor text and party banter. They caution that the abundance of characters becomes tedious to manage mid-game, combat can feel overly complex with status effects, and the pixel graphics are divisive.
