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.

What players say

Players find this a very short RPG Maker game, around 5 to 8 hours. Story and characters are minimal, with constant typos and grammar mistakes. Battles are easy except for a difficulty spike that forces grinding late in the game. Reviews are split on whether the simplicity is charming or just mediocre.
