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 tense, psychologically harrowing visual novel where players navigate life-or-death games with a chaotic goddess, facing betrayal and emotional weight in a dark, story-driven mystery.

What players say

Players praise the character writing and the sheer number of creative in-story games, but warn that the game is very long with 16 routes that can feel repetitive and that the ending disappoints. Some mention the lack of physical stakes and note comparisons to Zero Escape and Danganronpa.
