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 fast-paced tactical RPG with absurdly high level caps and a lighthearted, comedic tone full of silly antics.

What players say

Players praise the story and humor, and note the grind is more manageable than in other Disgaea games thanks to tools. Some dislike that the SD sprites were removed, and there's a difficulty spike in the final levels. The ending is seen as not hitting as hard as earlier entries.
