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, first-person mystery set in a quaint town where you gather clues and sell apples while strolling through atmospheric, slightly surreal environments.

What players say

Players say the story is intriguing and the atmosphere is nice, but controls are limited to running and jumping. The short length and small scope make it a way to pass the time rather than a deep experience.
