Sign on to the Internet – a vast, full\-immersion virtual world\. Here, users live their ideal lives, willfully blind to the fragile structure of their reality…  Catie's days are carefree, spent leading a small forum in a quiet corner of the Web\. But when a mysterious firewall begins consuming the northern wilderness, the Internet's leaders are called together to assess the threat\. Soon, Catie will find herself plunged into the thick of a wild adventure, alongside a group of unlikely new allies\. Together, they must reassemble the code of an ancient hacking tool, while being pursued by a mysterious new enemy, and the unrelenting shadows of the past\.\.\.         A vast, virtual land to explore  \- See the Internet in a way you've never imagined it before – as an immersive fantasy world\!

A rich, 30\+ hour story  \- Meet vibrant new characters, and join them on a quest filled with both humor and heart\. Who knows, maybe you'll even find a few unexpected plot twists along the way? And when you’re done, there’s a very extensive postgame to explore, too\!   Tons of customization  – Style up your party members with unique accessories\! These baubles are hidden everywhere, and they all have unique and unpredictable effects\. From a tiny ghost that turns you intangible, to a compass that seeks out hidden treasure\. There’s something fun to wear for just about everyone\!   So many  Paper Mario  references  \- Maybe even too many? The Paper Mario series, and especially TTYD, was a huge inspiration to us\. How many shout\-outs can  YOU  find?   Plenty of replayability  \- This game is jam\-packed with secrets; you’ll never be able to find them all during your first trip through\! Luckily, a certain postgame area can give you hints to find the things you missed\.   Exclusive Boxxy content  – If you’re a fan of Catie’s classic videos, then you may be in luck, because this game has a very special Easter Egg for you to find\!   The perfect pie recipe?  \- Will you learn how to make a truly fabulous dessert? Maybe not, but you'll never know for sure unless you play\!
