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 straightforward tactical RPG with retro aesthetics, adjustable difficulty, and a detailed tutorial that makes it approachable for newcomers.

What players say

Players call it a free Fire Emblem clone, but opinions split: some enjoy the simple maps and cheesy story, while others dismiss it as a low-effort SRPG Studio asset flip. Input problems with controllers and mice are a common complaint.
