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 serene, atmospheric visual novel with carefully paced text and music, guiding you through reflective, romantic character stories.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Many praise the writing as a deep, literary experience with thoughtful themes, but just as many call it an overwrought, self-indulgent novel with poor visual novel pacing, no voice acting, and AI-generated art. The twist that the love interest is a robot is a common point of contention, some find it clever, others say the story ends abruptly without payoff.
