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

You clean, fix up, and design your own cafe step by step, feeling a low-stakes sense of progress and creative accomplishment.

What players say

Players regularly lose all progress after a PC change due to no cloud save, and the game runs poorly while offering little tutorial guidance. Reviewers also note that repairs break within a day and loan repayments feel unrealistic.
