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 slow, introspective visual novel built around a strange, whispered rumor and the quiet dread of unexplainable events.

What players say

Players are split on SOULS. Some praise its unsettling atmosphere, soundtrack, and thought-provoking themes about loneliness and identity. Many others criticize its single ending with no choices, overly long internal monologues, slow pacing, and a protagonist they find unlikable or poorly written. Complaints about typos and awkward Chinese translation are common.
