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 describe a short horror walking sim with Japanese atmosphere and jump scares, but opinions split on whether it is effective or silly. Some praise the visuals while others flag AI-generated art. The developer removed anime posters after complaints, a move that several reviewers mention. The game relies on key-fetching puzzles and offers multiple endings via chapter select.
