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 lighthearted visual novel with wandering around a school setting, making dialogue choices that shape a romantic story.

What players say

Players describe it as a barely interactive anime, with roughly 80% cutscenes and 10% walking to markers. Praise goes to the cute slice-of-life yuri story and full Japanese voice acting, while others call it boring with clunky controls and limited gameplay. Several note PS1-era low-poly graphics and the lack of a mid-scene save.
