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 dramatic, story-driven visual novel with live-action footage that feels like a heartfelt TV drama, blending mystery with emotional character interactions.

What players say

Players call it an uneven mix where the original visual novel gets a live-action remake and outlandish new story paths. Some love the campy, over-the-top twists in drama mode and the convenience of chapter skipping, while others dismiss the writing as nonsensical and the protagonist as off-putting. The game also doubles as a sightseeing tour of Shimane, Japan.
