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, low-key collection of everyday vignettes told through text and minimal interaction, with a soft focus on character moments.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short visual novel with four interconnected, everyday stories about girls. It has no choices and minimal gameplay, just reading with nice pixel art and music. Reviews often mention it feels bittersweet or leaves them wanting more, since the stories end without a formal conclusion.
