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 quiet, melancholic visual novel about gradual societal collapse and solitary survival, told through text and 2D art with a slow, contemplative pace.

What players say
Players praise the emotional payoff once the two seemingly separate stories connect, but warn that the first chapters are a slog. The tale pairs a pandemic that makes people vanish with an immortal girl, and fans of the developer's earlier work Narcissu will find similar melancholy and minimalistic art. Some find the voice acting off-putting initially.
