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 slow, atmospheric puzzle adventure set on an eerily abandoned alien world, where exploration and quiet deduction replace action.

What players say

Players call it a classic Myst-like adventure with much harder, math-heavy puzzles that often require scratch paper and can reset randomly. The FMV characters and clunky click-to-interact controls draw mixed reactions, but fans of the genre find it rewarding.
