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 classic 2D platformer where you sneak and blast through colorful, trap-filled levels while solving puzzles.

What players say

Players call Secret Agent a solid but tough DOS-era platformer that holds up mostly on nostalgia. The level design draws mixed feelings: some call it thoughtful, others say it is frustrating with unresponsive controls. Several reviewers note the game lacks modern polish and point to the HD remaster as the better buy.
