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 slow, wordless walk through a nostalgic and slightly eerie Japanese summer, relying purely on visuals and ambient sound to evoke sadness and unease

What players say

Players describe it as a short, atmospheric walking simulator that takes about an hour. They praise the striking visuals and unsettling mood, but many find the story confusing and the lack of sound options frustrating. Some compare it to Yume Nikki or LSD: Dream Emulator, though opinions split on whether it matches their creativity.
