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.

How it feels

A richly narrated visual novel with multiple branching paths, romantic subplots, and a dark fantasy setting, driven by player choices and fully voiced dialogue.

What players say

Players praise the voice acting, art, and music, but split on the impact of choices. Some find the story mostly linear with little character development, while others say choices matter. The playable character and dating elements also divide opinion.
