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 text-heavy journey through a desolate fantasy world where your decisions shape morality and uncover a personal mystery.

What players say
Players call it a short visual novel with stat points and branching paths, finished in about half an hour but made for multiple playthroughs due to several endings. Most agree it delivers more than expected for the price, though a few find it becomes samey quickly.
