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 are split on Protect Me. Some enjoy the core idea of controlling two characters at once, one with the mouse and one with the keyboard, calling it creative and fun. Others see it as a shallow asset flip from developer Bitlock Studio, with no instructions, little content, and a confusing, frustrating experience.
