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 gentle, story-driven point-and-click journey through a hand-drawn forest, where you guide a firefly through whimsical encounters and philosophical reflections.

What players say

Players praise the beautiful storybook art style and fairytale story, but are split on the character voice noises, which some find grating enough to mute. The puzzles are simple and the game is short, around 2-3 hours, making it a relaxing experience they compare to a bedtime story.
