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 classic-style dragon adventure through a lush but troubled garden, with simple turn-based exploration and combat.

What players say

A faithful homage to NES-era Dragon Quest, it captures the old-school charm and frustrations: slow-paced combat, random encounters every few steps, and a high enemy crit rate. Players praise the hidden secrets and character customization, but note the difficulty can spike sharply.
