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 unfolding through dialogue and branching choices, set against an occult Kyoto backdrop.

What players say

玩家对游戏中的男同内容与超自然推理的混合评价两极分化，多数认为推理部分过于薄弱且线性，而频繁的男男亲密互动（如舔眼球）让期待推理的玩家感到意外和不适。游戏有完整的中日配音，但语音语言与文本绑定无法自由切换成为常见抱怨，多位玩家指出宣传标签有误导嫌疑。
