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.

What players say

Players praise the art and the cute robot character, but split on the writing and mechanics. Many complain there is no save, load, or text skip, making replays tedious. The music loops a short track. The story is very short and choices often lead to similar outcomes.
