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 nostalgic, colorful pixel-art RPG with witty dialogue and accessible turn-based combat, set in a peaceful world where adventure is always optional.

What players say

Players praise the charming pixel art, story, and music, but consistently note the rough English translation with grammar errors. The game is linear with no backtracking and has missable content, yet some enjoy its simplicity. Opinion splits on difficulty and pacing: some find it too slow with unskippable cutscenes, while others appreciate it as a nostalgic RPG.
