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.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy the animated CG and quirky card puzzle, others cannot run the game at all. Complaints about missing menus, no volume controls, and a skip function that crashes are common. Difficulty is often called unfair, with many relying on the easy mode. Long-time players note the game contains many fetishes but say technical polish is lacking.
