The Herbivore and the Christmas Cake – A Full Bodied Critique of Catherine (2018x15)

Air date: Nov 20, 2018

Catherine is a game quite unlike any other. On a surface level it explores themes of fidelity and compromise to the tune of titillating thrills, but beneath its lurid, provocative surface lies a far less sexy problem at the heart of modern day Japan. The video contains mild visual spoilers for Catherine, flashing lights and risqué imagery.
