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 point-and-click adventure with an atmospheric ship setting, driven by puzzle-solving and a mysterious story.

What players say

Players compare it to a mobile hidden-object game that's moved to PC, with a 3D cargo ship setting and swaying motion some like. About two to three hours long, no bonus chapter or voice acting, and players note puzzles that feel like busy work or require pixel-perfect clicks. A few report progression bugs.
