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 tense, atmospheric investigation into a magical conspiracy, where you navigate uncertainty and paranoia through dialogue and exploration.

What players say

Players praise it as a compelling visual novel that improves on Danganronpa by removing time-wasting minigames, relying on pure logical debates. They are split on the plot: some call it the best magical girl story ever, others say the logic gets strained and the final act feels forced.
