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 slow-paced, noir-infused point-and-click adventure where you piece together clues through dialogue and text, punctuated by dark humor and a moody 1930s setting.

What players say

Players praise the art, music, and sarcastic protagonist, but agree the game was abandoned after one chapter when the studio folded. The core mystery wraps up, but obvious sequel hooks sting. Reviews split on whether it works as a standalone.
