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 tender, melancholic visual novel where you soak in the quiet warmth of a chance meeting under Taipei's winter rain.

What players say

Players call it a short, emotional visual novel about grief and finding purpose, lasting 4-6 hours. The story starts slow with slice-of-life moments but builds to a heartfelt, bittersweet ending. Many note the protagonist Tina's personality and the relationship between characters as highlights, while performance is not an issue.
