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 brisk, casual time-management game where you direct treasure hunters through clearing tasks and solving simple puzzles, with a light fantasy twist.

What players say

Players are divided. Many call it a lazy mobile port from developer 8Floor and complain that achievements were removed instead of fixed. Others find the visible resource timer and per-level artifact hunting a welcome change to the series, though the childish graphics split opinion. The game has 40 main levels plus 20 bonus levels and takes about 5 hours.
