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 deliberate, old-school tactical RPG where you outfit a party of fantasy warriors for turn-based battles amid a rebellion narrative.

What players say

Players describe it as a retro-style JRPG with PS1-era 3D graphics, short but solid. The job system and combat are the focus, while the story is minimal. Some note that dungeons are plain, and the difficulty spikes on certain enemies. The game works well on Steam Deck.
