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 peaceful, contemplative visual novel with an underlying sense of impending tragedy, where a gentle character's kindness clashes with a harsh world.

What players say
Players describe this as a short kinetic novel with no interactivity, a bittersweet story about life and death, and decent art and music. Many note technical problems like typos, missing transitions, and reused sprites, and most agree the price feels too high for the length.
