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 peaceful, creativity-driven sandbox where you build and decorate a serene Japanese garden restaurant at your own pace, with no pressure or failure.

What players say
Players praise the relaxing story and satisfying progression from a humble izakaya to a larger restaurant, but note the auto mode removes stress and can also remove the challenge. Opinion is split: some love the option, others find it drains the fun. Performance issues like high GPU usage and minor bugs are common complaints.
