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 melancholic yet heartwarming journey of reconnection and slow-burn romance, where past loss gives way to quiet hope and deepening bonds.

What players say

Players praise the heartfelt story and well-developed characters. The game is long, over 20 hours, and builds romance slowly rather than jumping into sex scenes. Some find the amount of text excessive, and a few call the adult scenes awkward or insufficient.
