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

You navigate chat conversations using only picture stamps, relying on clever interpretation and a bit of trial-and-error to get through each thread.

What players say

Players call it a clever twist on deckbuilding where you reply to chat with limited-use stickers, capturing the awkwardness of forced small talk. The game has more depth than expected, but hard mode is brutally tough. Players note the heavy Touhou theming and that it initially launched without English, though a translation was added.
