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 remake of a classic open-world RPG that feels immersive and challenging with a dark fantasy atmosphere.

What players say

Fans say the remake captures the original's harsh world and rewarding progression, but buggy quests force reloads and lockpicking is widely hated. Players disagree on difficulty: mages find their power drops in late game, while others praise the challenging climb from weakling to hunter.
