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 poignant, text-driven visual novel that balances cute pixel art and dark humor with an undercurrent of existential dread and emotional weight.

What players say

Players are split on this short kinetic visual novel. Many praise its atmospheric art and music, but others find the story incoherent and the English translation nearly nonsensical. The lack of any settings menu and the blinding white background are common complaints.
