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 gently awkward and playful journey with a cheerful protagonist exploring personal growth and connection at a relaxed pace.

What players say

Players praise the detailed world-building and chemistry between the two leads, but note the explicit content is more in the writing than the artwork. Some find the made-up succubus lore excessive and the relationship conflict-free, though most call it sweet and cozy for an adult game.
