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 feel like a friendly innkeeper chatting with adventurers, mixing drinks that gently steer their fates in a warm, colorful world.

What players say

Players love the characters and queer representation, but many find the drink-mixing repetitive and the choice system limited. The game is almost entirely reading, with slow text bubbles that frustrate some. Reviews split on whether staying in the inn is a cozy feature or a boring limitation.
