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 thoughtful, atmospheric visual novel where you slowly piece together the truth by reading faces and motives in tense criminal interrogations.

What players say
Players praise the novel lie-detection gameplay built around reading facial expressions, calling it a fresh take on detective stories. However, they consistently fault the awkward English translation, a confusing UI, and a story that sets up a sequel without resolving its own mysteries. The difficulty curve is steep, and the pacing drags due to repetitive emotion-check prompts.
