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 calm, introspective journey through myth where your choices shape a personal, relationship-driven story without any visual or audio stimulation.

What players say

Players praise the writing and cozy slice-of-life approach but warn that romance is a slow burn and the story has little conflict. Some find the Greek mythology reimagining off-putting, while others appreciate its nuanced characters.
