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 whimsical, family-friendly point-and-click adventure with dark humor and a relaxed pacing, set in a deliberately inaccurate medieval world.

What players say

Players call this a medieval Monkey Island with great humor, voice acting, and 3D graphics. Many praise its self-aware comedy and fourth-wall breaks. But they split on its completion: several say it feels like an unfinished intro with missing content and bugs at the full-release point, while others find the existing chapters fun.
