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 branching visual novel with full voice acting and multiple paths, set in a cheerful school life with romance, sports, and festivals.

What players say

Players call it a solid moege with a likable cast and a well-paced romance, though several say the heroines and story echo the first game so strongly that it lacks freshness. Recommended to play Primal Hearts 1 first for context. The Chinese version has font issues, and there is no cloud save on Steam Deck. The Alicia route drew specific criticism for its awkward speech pattern and voice acting.
