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 cheerful, low-stakes stealth game where you tiptoe past guards and dogs as a hapless burglar in goofy capers.

What players say

Players praise Robbery Bob as a faithful PC port of a classic mobile game, often recalling it from childhood. They note it takes about 14 hours to 100%, with short levels and a bonus chapter that is more challenging than the main campaign. A common bittersweet observation is that the developer went bankrupt, so a sequel is unlikely.
