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 contemplative visual novel where you piece together a tragic past through multiple, branching conversations on a peaceful island.

What players say

Players mostly enjoy the short, bittersweet story and the art, but many find the need to replay 30-minute runs to collect all fragments tedious, especially without a proper skip function. There is disagreement on whether the length justifies the price, and some report bugs with saving progress and unlocking endings even when following a guide.
