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 short, silly visual novel where you read and click through a dating show in which contestants might be cake.

What players say

Players praise this short free visual novel for its humor, but warn it unexpectedly shifts into philosophical and even dark territory, with one reviewer calling it 'philosophical comedy.' It takes roughly 30 minutes to finish and all achievements are earned in a single playthrough.
