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.

A dramatic and emotional medical time-management game with a gripping story and heartfelt moments.

What players say

Players praise the dramatic soap-opera story and nostalgic feel, but many find the pace stressful and the controls demanding. Opinions split on character writing, especially on the main character's choices and the forced forgiveness plot.
