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, intimate visual novel about exploring BDSM dynamics through personal confession and mutual trust, with a focus on emotional openness rather than action.

What players say

Players praise this as a rare fully animated 3D femdom visual novel with multiple endings, though they warn about a black screen bug that blocks progress. Some find the dark route unsettling and note that animations repeat and cannot be skipped.
