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 gently melancholic visual novel with a sweet, slow-burn romance set in a blooming schoolyard, full of tender dialogue and soft emotional beats.

What players say

Players find this entry lighter and less complex than the earlier game Jisheng, with three endings and less emotional trauma. Some call it their favorite in the series.
