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

You manage a cute dungeon, build rooms and traps, and direct squads of adorable demons to lightly harass intruders for cash.

What players say

Players are split on this dungeon management eroge. Many praise the addictive core gameplay loop, but nearly everyone complains it is extremely grindy with a harsh turn limit that forces repeated restarts. The Steam version ships with untranslated menus and missing story and adult content, requiring a free patch, which some reviewers find unacceptable.
