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 straightforward, contemplative adventure about an ordinary man whose mundane life gives way to a mysteriously dreamlike journey.

What players say

Players say the game is very short, with some finishing in under 30 minutes. Opinions split on value: some call it a charming story-driven adventure, while others find it overpriced with too little content.
