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 demanding cultivation grind where every realm breakthrough feels like a dicey, storm-soaked trial that can set you back hard, wrapped in an early-access world still finding its footing.

What players say

Players call it a relaxed idle-friendly cultivation RPG where offline meditation and auto combat let progress tick while you are at work, and the shop only sells cosmetics so gear comes from farming. Combat gets regular praise for dodges, parries and builds that change elemental and boss behavior, but auto AI walks into attacks and the early access run ends around 10 hours at the Jindan cap.
