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 playful retro adventure with classic point-and-click puzzles and silly humor set aboard ridiculous moon-sized space trains.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, funny point-and-click adventure with British humour and easy puzzles. The story and voice acting are praised, while the MS Paint-style pixel graphics draw mixed reactions. Some say it feels unfinished and the gameplay is primitive.
