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 mystery visual novel where you examine evidence through short puzzles in a race to stop a serial killer.

What players say
Players describe this as a free, short visual novel focused on character Red July, with a unique art style and an impossible illusion murder puzzle. Some say the detective logic is weak, and the experience depends heavily on whether its style clicks with you.
