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 soft, slow-paced visual novel with a cozy soundtrack where you learn Japanese through charming dialogues and flashcards.

What players say
Players say it lacks voice acting for lessons and has frustrating audio issues like two BGM tracks playing at once. The game is a monologue-based reading tool with cute art, but some find it insufficient for real learning. Players split on whether it is helpful at all.
