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 darkly humorous, story-driven adventure where you manage a shady bar for supernatural clientele while navigating life-and-death choices.

What players say
Players describe it as a very short visual novel with light bartending mechanics that feel repetitive and basic. Opinions split on value, many note typos, poor audio, and technical issues like forced windowed mode, while some appreciate the art style and suggest replaying for different endings.
