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 deliberate, text-driven mystery where you piece together clues through point-and-click investigation and visual novel dialogue, set in a tense historical atmosphere.

What players say
Players praise the retro-modern mystery adventure for its accessible hint system, stylish visuals, and appealing male characters. The game is currently available through chapter 2, with more content promised, and players are split on whether the auto-advance issue after timed choices is a bug or design flaw.
