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 gleefully chaotic board-game RPG where alliances shatter and friendships crumble as players scheme, sabotage, and brawl their way to claiming a kingdom.

About

Grab your soon-to-be-ex-friends and charge into a true contest of strategy, wit and beating each other senseless in this addictive party-RPG! Up to four players can join in the mayhem as you race to win a kingdom and edge out your competition along the way.

What players say

A notorious friendship-destroying board-game RPG built around sabotaging your friends, beloved as one of the PS2's best local party experiences but a tedious grind alone. JP players rate this entry highly for its polish and wild comeback-friendly swings.
