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

playing feels like slowly piecing together a somber, mystery-laden story where every uncovered clue nudges you toward one of several uncertain, introspective endings.

About

An RPG/adventure retelling the end of the Evangelion storyline, introducing the new characters NERV investigator Kenzaki Kyouya and dummy-plug research scientist Kaga Hitomi. In the game, you play as a new character, Nerv agent Kyouya Kenzaki, an old college friend of Kaji's. Throughout the game, you must uncover mysteries surrounding the Evangelion plot, as well as mysteries involving yourself. There are multiple routes, which seem to depend how much information you uncover. The end credits, which scroll like Evangelion Death, features a backdrop of the LCL Sea from End of Evangelion set to Soul's Refrain (10th Anniversary Version) from Evangelion: Decade.
