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 casual, swipe-based dating sim where you chat, invite matches to home dates, and progress relationships at your own pace through a phone interface.

What players say

Players say it is a very basic dating sim where you swipe and chat on a fake social media app from your phone, but the loop gets boring fast. There is a broken blackjack minigame that can softlock, and the game stops launching after an hour or two for some. People appreciate the idea but feel it is unfinished and need more girls and features.
