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.

A gentle, introspective visual novel where you shape an android's emotional journey of self-discovery through dialogue and choices.

What players say

Players praise the full voice acting and the charming tsundere butler Victor, and they appreciate that the protagonist has her own personality and arc. The game is the first of three planned chronicles, so only two love interests are available so far, which some players mention.
