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 slow-burning mystery that feels like piecing together fragments of memory in an abandoned, claustrophobic space.

What players say

Players describe this as a short, well-written visual novel that wears its Zero Escape inspiration proudly but tells its own story. The protagonist can be frustrating, and the ending is a cliffhanger that leaves you wanting part 2.
