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 retro tactical RPG with a dark, tense atmosphere and deliberately difficult strategic battles.

What players say

Players say this is a port of a 2007 mobile game, not the original SFC version, so it strips away features like map fusion and feels simpler. The game has a sluggish pace even with a turbo button, and the screen flashes every attack action. It is in Japanese only with no translation. Longtime Megami Tensei fans appreciate the revival of a lost title, but most warn newcomers off.
