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 cinematic JRPG where you shift between linear exploration and turn-based battles, with a strong emphasis on story and atmosphere as you navigate time-altering choices.

What players say

Players love the time-travel exploration, improved combat, and soundtrack, but they strongly warn that the PC port is broken and requires fan patches to avoid crashes and softlocks that can erase progress.
