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.

What players say

Players are divided on whether this is a proper adventure game or a walking simulator with light puzzles. Some praise the atmosphere, voice acting, and greek mythology theme, while others find the puzzles too easy and the inventory system frustrating, with frequent backtracking and no fast travel.
