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 playful and absurd turn-based RPG where you recruit misfit bounties for fast, colorful combat and a lighthearted space adventure to avoid retail work.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art and character design but are split on the gameplay. Many find the music repetitive and the difficulty uneven, with some fights feeling arbitrary. The grind and unclear mechanics like runes frustrate some, while others enjoy the laid-back auto-battle option.
