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 frantic puzzle-adventure where you must outsmart lethal alien pets to survive under mounting pressure.

What players say

Players enjoy the clever puzzle design and the way difficulty scales through optional bonus objectives. The game mixes timing-based challenges with logic puzzles, and the fully voiced dialogue and fourth-wall humor add personality. Some players find the timing elements frustrating, comparing them to mouse-clicking exercises rather than pure puzzles.
