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 tense, story-driven visual novel where romantic entanglements and life-or-death mysteries unfold on a remote, foreboding island.

What players say

Players are split on this otome murder mystery. Some enjoy the many endings and dark tone, while others find the romance shallow and the story told in summaries rather than shown. The game plays like a time-management puzzle where choices affect survival, but the characters and island feel underdeveloped.
