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 laid-back, introspective experience where you make brief choices that let you live ordinary moments from another person's perspective.

What players say

Players step into the shoes of seven Milan residents across 49 short, choice-driven conversations. The writing and art are praised, and many highlight the optional timeline puzzle where you reorder fragments by date, which can be tricky without a notepad. Players say small choices ripple across stories and first impressions of characters shift on replay.
