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 brisk, playful dating sim where you recruit and romance while enacting cartoonish villainy.

What players say

Players praise the female-dominant premise and character writing, but find the simulation gameplay shallow and repetitive, with little mechanical depth. Completion takes 1-2 hours per run, and many wish for a skip function for the tedious management sections after unlocking all endings.
