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 delicate, dreamlike platformer with a touch of eerie cuteness as you navigate a twilight world haunted by yokai.

What players say

Players praise the unique coin-counting mechanic that makes you avoid or collect coins to open or close numbered blocks, but opinions split on whether this leads to clever puzzles or tedious trial and error. The game is short, with generous checkpoints and no lives, though some find the platforming controls frustrating for precise jumps.
