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.

A cute but tense management simulation where you guide a reborn AI streamer through strategic data collection and darkly humorous mystery.

What players say

Players are split on this short rogue-lite visual novel. Many praise the art, music, and eerie atmosphere, but nearly as many criticize the repetitive stat-raising gameplay and a story that feels incomplete or rushed. Several note the use of AI art, and while opinions vary on its impact, most agree the game leans heavily on its aesthetic and meta secrets to make an impression.
