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 slow, atmospheric visual novel that feels like stepping into a melancholic, steam-powered fairytale where reality blends with fantasy.

What players say

Players call this a slow, poetic visual novel with gorgeous art and music, though the ornate prose can feel repetitive. It follows two heroines in a post-apocalyptic, steampunk New York, and some find the early chapters hard to get through before the story hooks them.
