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 quirky visual novel blending gentle romance and absurd political drama with a light, storybook feel.

What players say

Players say the sequel improves on the first with voiced characters and richer content, but the heavy use of political satire and memes divides opinion. Many note there are many bad endings, and the story sets up a third chapter in Nantou. Some criticize the voice acting quality and a lack of focus on romance.
