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
Playing this visual novel feels like slowly turning pages of a classic, unsettling story in a dimly lit room, with heavy silence and poignant illustrations guiding the melancholy transformation.

What players say
Players praise the hand-drawn art and sound design for capturing the story's atmosphere, and many say the interactive format helped them finish a book they otherwise wouldn't. A few find the pacing too slow or the later art quality uneven.
