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 cozy, cartoony detective game where you explore as a dog using heightened senses to solve mysteries at a gentle pace.

What players say

Players praise the sound-driven gameplay and the ability to play as a cute corgi, but some find the blind-accessible promise unfulfilled due to unclear audio cues and missing screen reader support. Reviews split on whether the mechanics work well.
