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 nostalgic trip back to classic Chinese RPGs with turn-based combat, retro 2D graphics, and historical storytelling.

What players say

Players praise the remake's quality-of-life changes like a built-in map and skip-grind items, which fix the original's infamous cave maze. Many finish in 5-10 hours but note heavy grinding for gold and equipment, especially before a final boss that demands high levels. Some found the combat slow and the soundtrack disappointing, others call the casino a glorified ad.
