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 short, text-driven narrative that feels like a raw, somber introspection through negative personal experiences.

What players say

Players say this text-based game is a painfully accurate depiction of transfeminine experiences with gender dysphoria and microaggressions, but it is very short with no gameplay and some report it is linear despite being tagged as nonlinear. A few mention a persistent phone ringing sound that may be a glitch.
