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 methodical mix of visual novel storytelling and turn-based puzzle combat with a dark folkloric setting and a plucky heroine.

What players say

Players praise the unique mechanic of deducing enemy names through hints, but report frequent crashes that erase progress and repetitive battles that wear out their welcome even in the first regions.
