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, story-driven journey across time with a relaxed, turn-based rhythm and a whimsical, classic adventure feel.

What players say

Players love the game itself, calling it a timeless classic with a brilliant story, memorable music, and no random encounters. But on this Steam port they report frequent crashes, stuttering, blurry scaling, and missing audio, so many recommend playing on original hardware or the DS version instead.
