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 poignant, slow-burn romance visual novel where each line of dialogue and CG scene is drenched in melancholy and longing, carrying the weight of past hurt and fragile hope.

What players say

Players praise the art and CG volume, but many criticize the bizarre narrative structure, clichéd amnesia and drunk-man plotlines, and weak prose that undermines its literary pretensions. Opinions split on the overall experience: supporters call it sweet despite flaws, while detractors find it unintentionally comedic and dated.
