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 free-to-play pixel-art MMORPG set in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world where players explore, fight, and interact with a variety of sentient creatures in a sandbox economy.

What players say

Players say this 2D MMORPG has a fun grind and helpful community, but the developers have stopped updating the game and servers can stay down for days. The active player count is very low, making it feel empty, and new players are put off by the requirement to create a third-party account.
