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, cerebral RPG where every move matters and one wrong step can end your run.

What players say

Players warn that a single mistake can force a full restart, with many hitting an impassable boss after hours of play. The mouse-driven movement is finicky, and the English translation is poor, but some find it a relaxing time-waster if they follow the all-defense strategy.
