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 deep, story-driven medieval fantasy RPG where you gather a party, customize characters, and explore a richly atmospheric world at a measured, tactical pace.

What players say

Players praise the improved voice acting, fast travel, and class-based storylines over the original, but many report the game is broken on Windows 10 and requires manual fixes to run.
