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 slow-burn RPG focused on exploration and narrative, with a subdued and contemplative feel.

What players say

Players praise the art style and appreciate the modern lawless setting, but consistently say the H-scenes are too short and lack narrative context. Some find the game grindy and obtuse in its questing, and note bugs that can break quests or achievements. The Persona-inspired combat is liked, though it only shines late game.
