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, lore-filled visual novel where you explore relationships and mythological stories through choose-your-own-adventure conversations in a pixel-art world.

What players say

Players describe it as a time-management visual novel where you have about 12 in-game days to befriend the seven gods of fortune. Runs are short, around 90 minutes, and all 22 endings are treated as equally valid. Some players find the lack of a tutorial and tight time limits frustrating, and note that the small ship map can feel restrictive. The pixel art and cooking mechanic are praised.
