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
Tactical turn-based combat with permanent death on a grim fantasy world, played at a methodical pace with a focus on story and character choices.

What players say
Players compare it favorably to Fire Emblem for turn-based tactics, but many find the story and characters shallow. The difficulty is inconsistent, with no permadeath making it easy to sacrifice units, and a complex armor system that feels pointless. Some report game-breaking crashes, while others enjoy it as a simpler retro-style tactical RPG.
