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 moody, methodical investigation game where you piece together clues in a gritty cyberpunk-noir city that feels alive and reactive.

What players say

Players praise the concept but report the game is riddled with bugs and runs poorly even on modest systems. Many say the developer abandoned it after release. Cases rely too heavily on fingerprints and repeat quickly. Steam Deck and controller support are broken. Players split on whether the fun core can outweigh the persistent issues.
