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 simple, lighthearted indie adventure with a modest pace and straightforward gameplay.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short psychological visual novel that focuses on moral decisions and ambiguous storytelling. They praise the unsettling atmosphere and aesthetic, but note the story remains unresolved regardless of the ending, and some feel choices lack real impact.
