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 charmingly retro puzzle adventure through a strange, hand-drawn world where each character seeks their own goal.

What players say

Players praise the varied, sound-driven puzzles and the hand-drawn art, but many warn that the lack of subtitles, unusual controls, and translation rough spots make it hard to start. Some say the early puzzles feel non-intuitive, while others enjoy the gradual click. Long-time players find its surreal world and character-based chapters rewarding, especially the hidden second ending.
