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 are split on this short romance set in 1920s New York. Many say it ends abruptly just as the story gets going, and object to forced romantic encounters with harassing characters and explicit sexual scenes without store-page warning. Others enjoy the historical setting and two well-written love interests, though even fans wish it were longer.
