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.

About

Liliana Adornato was born and raised in the church in the center of the Italian town of Burlone. Three criminal organizations control parts of the city, and Lily discovers that she is in the center of their turf wars. Her encounters with the leaders of the Falzone, Visconti, and Lao-Shu families lead to danger and distraction. Once Lily is drawn into the shadowy world of the mafia, she realizes there is no going back. Experience gorgeous music and artwork depicting the sun drenched (and sin-filled) world of early 1900’s Italy. Navigate organizations filled with intrigue and betrayal as three mafia families fight for honor and control. Unlock additional story options, new perspectives, and deeper, deadlier secrets as you complete the game multiple times. Originally released as Piofiore no Banshou for the PlayStation Vita. The game was then re-released for the Nintendo Switch as Piofiore no Banshou -Ricordo- with updated scenarios and new CGs.
