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 report the English server has been down for years and the game has not received updates since early access, leaving only the Chinese server functional. Despite that, those who can play describe it as a text-based idle RPG with strategic depth that somehow keeps them hooked for hundreds of hours, while others find it boring or a time waster.
