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 describe QV as a cute puzzle platformer with ink-based mechanics that require careful timing and planning. The difficulty curve is generally fair, but some levels have tight margins and the collision detection can be unreliable, particularly during timed sequences.
