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 praise the novel puzzle mechanic of moving letters to push a cat, and say the story is touching, even making some cry. Many note the difficulty spikes and falls unevenly, with some chapters padded and others blocked by hard puzzles. The game is short, around two to three hours, and offers a skip-level option for those who want to focus on the narrative.
