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 somber, philosophical click-through narrative that feels like flipping through a darkly humorous short story about internet life, paced gently with minimal interaction.

What players say

Players are divided on this interactive fiction. Many say it is not really a game, just clicking through text-heavy slides with no gameplay, and the message feels preachy and self-important. A few appreciate the story and music, but even they agree it is short and lacks interactivity.
