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 moody, pixel-art driven 2D platformer that feels like a somber detective thriller, weaving psychological horror and emotional drama through its atmospheric world.

What players say

Players report a short RPG Maker adventure plagued by bugs and poor translation, especially a chess puzzle stuck in Mandarin. Sentiment is overwhelmingly negative, not about the play but about the developer slashing the price from 28 to 11 yuan within a month and disbanding the community, which early buyers call a betrayal.
