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 charming and nostalgic creature-collector that feels like a warm, pixelated trip back to classic portable monster-catching games.

What players say

Players praise the retro Game Boy Color aesthetic and the distinct 3v3 battles, but warn that the grind is relentless. Many compare it to Pokemon but note that catching creatures requires multiple expensive items and leveling new ones from scratch. The story is described as dark and the postgame is not worth pursuing.
