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 calm, contemplative puzzle adventure where you slowly piece together clues in a pixel-art classroom, with a focus on atmosphere and gentle discovery rather than urgency.

What players say

Players praise the puzzle variety and psychedelic storytelling, but split on difficulty later puzzles get very obscure. Some report bugs that block progress, and the developer is reportedly uncontactable. The hint system is often described as unhelpful.
