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 frantic, laugh-out-loud point-and-click adventure where you race against a crashing computer with a sarcastic, cartoonish hero.

What players say

Players praise the humor and writing but are split on the mandatory time limit, which penalizes exploration and experimentation. Puzzles are often described as obtuse, requiring trial and error, and the point-and-click controls on Switch frustrate some.
