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 the writing and werewolf romance but are split on the game's handling of a trans character, with some calling it a poorly timed reveal and others decrying it as an agenda. The early chapters offer choice, but later reactivity drops and romances feel linear. Many enjoy the urban politics and emotional beats, though the lack of same-sex vampire romance options disappoints some.
