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

You control time to solve puzzles, navigating traps and enemies in a pixel-art world with a sense of responsibility and discovery.

What players say

Players praise the time-stopping mechanic and pixel art, but opinions diverge on difficulty. Some find it a fun test of strategy and timing, while others report one-hit kills and slow reloads make it punishing. A mini-storyline is present.
