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 vibrant fantasy action-adventure where you wield magic and use the environment tactically while climbing and exploring a colorful world.

What players say

Players praise the satisfying magic system and physics-driven combat, especially climbing giant creatures, but many find the story and characters overbearing with excessive dialogue. Players are split on the writing, some calling it charming and others tedious. The world and combat loop can feel repetitive over time, though big monster fights remain the highlight.
