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 tense point-and-click puzzle game where you explore a creepy mansion against a tight deadline, solving unique puzzles to escape an unseen threat.

What players say

Players call it a very short point-and-click adventure, often finishing under an hour. They are split on whether that is charming or overpriced, and note that the puzzles are mostly simple. One infamous puzzle expects players to notice text on a physical Metal Gear Solid box, and many consider that unfair.
