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 gentle, story-driven experience where you read and watch scenes unfold in virtual reality, surrounded by cute characters and a calming fantasy setting.

What players say

Players describe it as a short kinetic novel, mostly reading with minimal VR interaction. The story is touching and memorable, but the VR aspect feels underused, with only a few seconds of animation. Performance and UI bugs are reported, and the dialogue is partly unvoiced.
