It's an amazingly tight and accomplished little work, as much a short film as a pilot episode. With economical strokes it paints a lonely yet lovely picture of a girl whose need to hide her feelings has placed her in an untenable emotional position. The characters are gracefully sketched, their emotions convoluted yet painfully comprehensible, and their romantic entanglements all too real. And it's all—plot, cast, and emotions; pointedly unresolved though they may be—beautifully, seamlessly self-contained.
After all, this is a game for a Nintendo system, not one of those licentious Microsoft consoles peddled in ads about high-kicking women.
Meanwhile, Atlus found a solution regarding the provocative cover for the U.S. version of Catherine, an adventure game with surreal and sexual overtones. Most retailers will see a PlayStation 3 cover that recreates the Japanese one. More sensitive ones (i.e. Wal-Mart) will get a less risqué close-up.
