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 lighthearted, charmingly narrated point-and-click adventure full of goofy pirate comedy and whimsical puzzles.

What players say

Players describe a charming, easy-going point-and-click adventure with a British sense of humor and more songs than expected. Many find the puzzles too simple, though the game remains enjoyable for families. Some note unresponsive controls and a rushed ending.
