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.

About

This is a remastered version of a JRPG that was popular in the early days of the Internet in Japan. Battles take place in a voxel-shaped field. [Game Play] This is a JRPG where you fight on battlefields rendered in 3D graphics. The characters' positions are important in battle, and their magic will be affected by where they stand, and they can also protect other friends. Each character has LP(Life Point) and MC(Magic Capacity), and uses magic by consuming MC. Consecutive weapon attacks will recover more MC. Magic can be learned by using Ability Points and choosing what you want.
