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

A short and easy adventure at about 2 to 5 hours, praised for its cute art and cozy exploration but criticized for being overly simple and having little replay value. Players compare it to A Short Hike and note the puzzles offer no challenge. Many say it's best on sale, as the $20 price feels too high for the length.
