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 melancholic and heartfelt story-driven game where you slowly uncover the quiet bonds between characters in a nostalgic setting.

About

In 1988, Japan was under a bubble economy. New buildings have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the social atmosphere is very lively in the era. The ancient objects gradually disappear, and new creatures are constantly born. Christmas Tina tells a story about boys and girls living hard under the shadow of the modern city. Their bond can break through the language barrier. Without words spoken, they already understand each other.
