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.

What players say

Players are sharply split on Book Three. Many long-time fans call it a filler entry that drags the romance and plot, leaving relationships in first gear and the supernatural worldbuilding underused. Others still enjoy the series and praise the character writing, but even they note this installment is weaker than the first two books.
