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 quiet, introspective visual novel where you navigate everyday high school life and past mistakes through thoughtful choices.

What players say

Players who don't speak Thai cannot follow the story, as the game has no English translation. Those who can understand Thai praise the free visual novel for its cute art, multiple endings, and romance writing, but note the voice acting sounds robotic and the skip function is broken.
