Nekopara Vol. 1 - Soleil Kaiten Shimashita! ( ネコぱら Vol.1 ソレイユ開店しました!?) is an adult visual novel series developed by Neko Works and published by Sekai Project. The game is based on Sayori's doujinshi works starring her two mascot characters Chocola and Vanilla for the first time in the visual novel series.

The game was released simultaneously in English, Japanese, and Chinese languages on December 29, 2014. The game is available for download on Steam and Sekai Project as an all-ages game. The 18+ version extension of the game is also available on Denpasoft. On July 4, 2018 Nekopara Vol. 1 was released on the Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4.

Game Description

Kashou Minazuki, the son of a long line of Japanese confection makers moved out to open his own shop "La Soleil" as a patisserie.

But upon moving out, hidden amongst his things were two of the catgirls, Chocola and Vanilla, that the family had been raising. When he tried to send them back, they begged and pleaded until he gave in and now they've opened La Soleil together.

With two catgirls who really, REALLY love their master trying their very best and occasionally failing -- a heartful comedy opens for business!

See the Sayori NEKOWORKs’ mascots Chocola and Vanilla like never before, moving, and in full voice on screen. And now with the E-mote System, the characters smoothly move on screen changing expression and poses in countless ways.[1]

Trivia

  • The word nekopara (ネコぱら) translates to "Cats Paradise" in English.
  • The demo version of the game, which runs until the end of Chapter 1, contains some edited dialogue that does not appear in the full version of the game.
  • A series of seven introductory videos were featured prior to the release of Nekopara Vol.1. It features all the main female characters of Nekopara introducing themselves as the cast of the series.[citation needed]
    • These videos are not featured within the game itself. Possibly they are made as a demonstration to the game's engine by NEKO Works.
  • As of August 2015, Nekopara Vol. 1 has sold over 110,000 copies.[3]
