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 chill idle game where you manage resource-collecting creatures to slowly, methodically expand your islands and take on challenges at your own pace.

What players say

Players are split on Island Idle RPG, with many calling it a short game that can be finished in a day. Common complaints include a clunky inventory, worker AI bugs where diggers stop animating, and the game causing computers to overheat. On the plus side, it is cheap and easy to 100%, but long-time players say the developer mostly asset-flips and development has stalled.
