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
You flip through a hand-drawn comic where every panel is a choice, bouncing between madcap science and personal discovery.

What players say
Players love the quirky time-travel story and branching choices, but many feel the price is too high for the short experience, which runs under an hour. The comic-book origins earn praise, especially from nostalgic readers, and finding the true ending is a rewarding puzzle.
