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 breezy, short pirate adventure with randomized maps and light combat, all wrapped in a cute and whimsical tone.

What players say

Players praise the charming pirate world and simple adventure, but many report clunky controls and a bug where chests are empty. The game is short, often finished in one or two hours, and keyboard support is missing on some platforms.
