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 dark fantasy visual novel where you navigate murder, deceit, and romance through branching choices in a cursed kingdom.

What players say

Players praise the engaging mystery and time-loop plot, but warn the game is very linear with minimal romance despite having love interests. The art and voice acting are amateurish, and the story starts slowly.
