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 low-stakes interactive story where you guide a group of friends through a light adventure by making choices and seeing illustrated outcomes.

What players say

Players describe a short, quirky visual novel with a handful of choices and multiple endings. The 3D-rendered graphics and stilted translated dialogue can be unintentionally amusing, though some find the writing cringey.
