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 quiet, introspective visual novel where you walk through daily life weighed by anxious thoughts.

What players say
Players are split on this visual novel: some find its depiction of anxiety irresponsible and its story bland, while others appreciate the emotional beats and cute character designs. It also includes a heavy pet death scene that caught some off guard.
