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 narrative-heavy visual novel with branching choices, emotional romance, and dark twists that shift between tender and unsettling moments.

What players say

Players are split on this dark visual novel. Many praise its unique character writing and hidden depth, but just as many are put off by what they see as deliberately toxic romantic dynamics and a protagonist who feels helpless. The 20 endings are noted as repetitive to unlock, and the lack of voice acting makes some scenes feel flat.
