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 dark, choice-driven visual novel set in a lushly illustrated Renaissance city, where you navigate a haunting narrative and optional romances as a protagonist with monstrous powers.

What players say

Players praise its deep story, hand-drawn art, and multiple endings, especially the romance routes. Some find the pacing too slow, but most say the long runtime rewards patience with a satisfying tale.
