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 charming and nostalgic 2D remake with a timeless emotional story and classic turn-based pacing.

What players say

Players praise Final Fantasy IV as a huge storytelling leap for the series, with a well-paced character-driven story and a memorable cast, especially Cecil. The Active Time Battle system divides players, and the constant party rotation early on can be frustrating. Farming for rare items like the pink tail tests patience.
