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 slow, methodical blacksmithing sim where daily labor and saving for a brothel give it a grounded, somewhat lonely feel.

What players say

Players say Black Smith4 is a grindy clicker with a relaxing vibe, but they split on the adult content: some find the dynamic scenes erotic and smooth, while others call the H-scenes average and the poses repetitive. A common complaint is the game feels overpriced for its shallow gameplay and limited content, with further criticism of AI-generated art and a poor machine translation in Chinese.
