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 fast-paced anime-style beat 'em up where you chain flashy combos as a cute but powerful fairy defending a forest.

What players say

Players praise the combo-driven combat and customizable moves, calling it a satisfying beat 'em up that plays like a 2D fighter. But they split on whether the controls, dated sound issues, and poor tutorials make it more frustrating than fun.
