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 grand, story-driven JRPG with turn-based battles and political intrigue, offering a classic adventure feel with modern 2.5D visuals.

What players say

Players split on this spiritual successor to Suikoden. Some find it a nostalgic, charming JRPG with deep character recruiting and side activities, while others say the story, dialogue, and pacing are a slog. PC controls are unplayable without a controller, and the game pushes toward auto-combat.
