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 interconnected worlds, piecing together lost memories with methodical turn-based battles and rich dialogue.

What players say

Players praise the massive amount of free Touhou fan RPG content and its many jokes and references. However, sentiment is split on difficulty: some say the early game is tough but later becomes trivial with gear, while others report severe late-game stat bloat and game-breaking bugs that can delete saves.
