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.

About

Our protagonist, Kirishima Yu, returns from Tokyo to the island where he once lived and reunites with his childhood friend, Minase Seikai. Seikai, who had been on the verge of giving up on her dream of becoming an idol, looks somewhat gloomy. Wanting to make her smile again, Yu proposes that she debut as a virtual idol named "Isekaijoucho" based on an illustration he drew himself.
