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 slow, emotionally heavy visual novel where you navigate a strange and unsettling world through dialogue and exploration, uncovering a story of love and sacrifice.

What players say

Players describe it as a story-driven visual novel with shadow-puppet art and a storyteller framing, comparing the tales to Liaozhai. Most agree the writing is strong and the stories interconnect, but they split on the voice acting, many finding the single narrator flat and催眠. It is in early access with the fifth chapter missing, and some note the pacing is too slow for action seekers.
