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.

What players say

Players praise this full-voiced Japanese indie visual novel for its classic youth romance and complex relationships, calling it good value at a low price. However, chapter 1 ends on a cliffhanger with no real branching and serves mostly as character setup, leaving some noting it is short for the price.
