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.

What players say

Players love the tight parry-focused combat and anime aesthetics, but they are split on the pacing. Many say the game stops too often for tutorials and dialogue, making the action feel sparse between excellent boss fights. Difficulty is accessible in story mode, with a punishing Shrine Maiden mode for veterans. Performance issues and unclear mission grading frustrate completionists.
