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 satirical visual novel where you navigate dystopian cyberpunk capitalism through choices that shape relationships and story.

What players say

Players praise a lengthy, mostly kinetic cyberpunk visual novel with a strong plot about dystopia and revenge. Many note the single late-game choice and two endings, and some find the pixel font hard to read. Opinions split on whether the writing is excellent or falls flat.
