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 quaint turn-based JRPG that balances cute character designs with a dark fantasy plague narrative and a gentle, story-driven pace.

What players say

Players finish in about 5 to 8 hours, with many calling it too short for the price. Random encounters occur every few steps and can grate in the many mazes, though escape works well. The ending is a cliffhanger for a sequel that never came. Difficulty is odd: the early game kills in one hit, but later enemies are trivial thanks to status effects.
