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 soothing, contemplative game where you sort through a loved one's belongings and piece together their story at a gentle, unhurried pace.

What players say

Players split on value because the first playthrough is short, but many praise the replayability across multiple endings. The core loop of sorting keepsakes into toss, sell, or keep is well-liked, though some find the interface clunky and the madlibs-style story reconstruction confusing at first. A few mention the witchy theme as a welcome surprise.
