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.

A short, story-driven visual novel with romantic tension and a polished art style, offering a quiet, introspective experience.

What players say

Players finish it in under 20 minutes, often in 5 to 8, and call it a no-choice visual novel. Reviews note the story is predictable, ends abruptly, and centers on male homosexual romance. The main draw is getting all achievements quickly in a free game.
