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 gentle, romantic journey where you build relationships and run a pharmacy in a lovingly detailed world.

What players say

Players say the game captures the Ming Dynasty novel well but lacks music, an ending, and variety, sex scenes repeat, character models look alike, and progression is grindy with padded waiting. Many feel it is an incomplete or poorly polished experience, though the character models appeal to some.
