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 lonely survivor navigates a ruined world after an ancient invasion, driven by determination to endure.

What players say

Players praise the art and story, and note the explicit content is a bonus rather than the focus. They disagree on controls and bugs: some find them unplayably clunky with unskippable cutscenes, while others say the jank is minor. It is compared to classic RPGs like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy.
