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 tender, intimate exploration of personal insecurities and self-acceptance, told through short, story-driven vignettes with warm artwork.

What players say

Players agree this is a very short visual novel, with each route taking only a few minutes. The art is praised but the lack of a gallery and the inability to hide the text box during scenes are common complaints. The stories are about a female masseuse and her female clients.
