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

Feels like directing a grim bureaucratic struggle to rebuild a broken industrial town under a rising totalitarian regime, with every decision weighing on the social and economic collapse.

What players say

Players say this political visual novel blends management, resource allocation, and murder investigations, but the story ends too abruptly and reading through endless letters feels like a chore.
