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.

What players say

Players consistently praise the writing and character depth, with many comparing it to a CW teen drama. The story is lengthy, with one player reporting 39 hours for a single playthrough. Players note that choices meaningfully impact the narrative and that pursuing multiple love interests can lead to drama. A few mention the game's slow development pace.
