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 pressurized night of moral compromise and buried grief, where every conversation and countdown tick feels heavy with consequence.

What players say

Players say this is an adult visual novel where you are a rocket launch director romancing three women. The art and voice acting are AI-generated, and the H-scenes use moving animation. The game is short with 23 achievements and has Chinese support.
