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 short story spin-off blending visual novel storytelling with rhythm-based action, set in a quaint traditional town with tense discussions among indie developers.

What players say

Players say this is a short, fanservicey spin-off for those who played Yumeutsutsu Re:Master. It pairs a brief visual novel with a single typing-style rhythm track that reuses songs from Symphonic Rain, some find it tough on easy, but there is an auto-play option. Reviews note the game lacks achievements and Japanese text only.
