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 lighthearted detective story with quirky characters and gentle mystery, told through text and charming visuals.

What players say

Players describe a short, easy-to-read visual novel with multiple endings and a detective story rooted in Eastern Slavic mythology. Some choices feel meaningless, and opinion on the protagonist and humor splits between charming and grating.
