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

Players call it a short Five Nights at Freddy's clone with cute cat characters, but opinions split on the difficulty. Some say the rules are too random and poorly explained, while others find it fair after learning the patterns. The game lasts about an hour and awards a sexy illustration at the end.
