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 somber, introspective visual-novel style experience about love, loyalty, and hardship, with a tense two-month time limit and a focus on emotional storytelling.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy the NTR story and art, but many call it unfinished and buggy, with grinding for no clear goal, unhelpful puzzles like the laptop password, and no way to progress without reading the developer's Twitter. Reviews in Chinese and Japanese also note partial translation and game-breaking bugs.
