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 quietly introspective journey through wartime correspondence, driven by storytelling and choice rather than action.

What players say

Players compare it to Valiant Hearts and praise the emotional story and cute artwork, but split on execution: some find the mini-games tedious and the game buggy, while others overlook these flaws for the heartwarming narrative.
