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.

A darkly romantic time-loop visual novel where you unravel a murder mystery while navigating emotional bonds that can break your heart.

What players say

Players praise the art and music, but many find the slow early pacing and lack of full voice acting frustrating. They stress a strict route order, with some feeling the segmented story needs all routes to make sense. Views on certain characters split sharply, ni-jo in particular draws strong dislike.
