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

You play as someone uncovering a disturbing legacy through reading files and watching surveillance footage, with a tense, voyeuristic and subdued pace.

What players say

Players consistently complain about the terrible translation and the short, linear story. The mini-game is widely hated for being too difficult, and many are furious that the protagonist does not have sex with the characters himself, calling it NTR. Reviews also note the same voice actress for all characters and a lack of real voyeur scenes.
