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 dark, story-driven visual novel told through a mobile messaging interface, where tense choices determine who lives or dies in a deadly game.

What players say

Players call this a short phone-based mystery visual novel that blends Zero Escape and Danganronpa influences. Views are split: many enjoy the atmosphere and story, while others find the puzzles unoriginal and complain that choices barely affect the outcome. The interface can be awkward and text pacing is slow.
