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 gentle, cheerful slow-paced life sim where you explore a colorful town, befriend its quirky residents, and craft potions at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and potion-making but say the game feels shallow and unfinished. Many note relationships stop at dating with no marriage, and that development stalled after 2024.
