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

You are bound, blind, and helpless, making life-or-death choices through text while the threat of failure and death looms over every decision.

What players say

Reviews compare it to the developer's earlier free game 'The Obsessive Phantom' and say this paid version offers similar content and length. Players are split on the branching: some find the many choices confusing and wish the paths were clearer, while others enjoy collecting all endings despite the difficulty. It is a short visual novel about an abducted schoolgirl trying to escape.
