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 text-heavy, fully voiced visual novel that dwells on graphic, despair-ridden death scenes and the protagonist's internal anguish.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short, linear visual novel with no player choices, lasting about one to two hours. It is specialized for heavy gore and ryona content, with strong reactions split: some find the art and voice acting good, while others call it a 'movie' or 'not a game' and feel it is overpriced for the length.
