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 calm, cerebral point-and-click puzzle game where you methodically explore clean environments to solve brain-teasers and activate portals.

What players say

Players criticize the puzzles for being repetitive and illogical, with solutions given but no explanation on how to reach them. The level design is said to be reused and the game feels like a mobile port. Some players compare it unfavorably to Doors: Paradox.
