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.

About

The protagonist, Piquet and his friends, get lost in an ancient magical kingdom. Their modern devices are mistaken for unknown magic, and they are mistaken as holy wizards that must save the world, even though they cannot use magic. Can Piquet and his friends, who have become heroes by chance, prevent the mysterious sleeping sickness that is putting the kingdom in danger and prevent the resurrection of the evil wizard? The story progresses as you collect items which you can get with magic, by combining them together, and then level up the items themselves. There are over 1,000 items. The game is divided into an adventure part where the story unfolds in 15 chapters, and an RPG part where you control the characters and fight monsters.
