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 cute but punishing turn-based tactics game where you lead quirky heroines through lore-heavy puzzles and tough bosses.

What players say

Players praise the simple, chess-like turn strategy with cute anime art and one-hit-death difficulty. Reviews highlight the unique combat - move two turns then the enemy moves one - and say English is coming but not here yet.
