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, casual RPG that feels like a gentle homage to 8-bit dungeon crawlers with a mild emotional undertone.

What players say

Players praise its nostalgic GameBoy-style greyscale graphics and music, noting strong character chemistry in a series that began with Knight Bewitched. Some find combat basic, and opinions split on difficulty: several call bosses a harsh spike, while others find the challenge fair.
