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.

What players say

Players say TAL: Arctic 4 is a very short and easy maze game, completable in about 30 minutes to an hour, with 60 levels and 67 achievements. Some call it a low-effort template flip made in Clickteam Fusion, but others note the controls improved from earlier entries and find it a harmless time-waster for kids or achievement hunters.
