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 warn this is not a romance despite looking like one. It is described as a psychological, surrealist thriller with aggressive gaslighting and meta elements, often compared to Doki Doki Literature Club. Some find the first half slow and feel choices lack real consequence, while others praise the gripping story and innovative use of the stat screen.
