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, text-driven journey through Greek myths, offering gentle storytelling and light interaction with multiple endings.

What players say

Players describe this as more of an illustrated retelling of Greek myths than a game, with clicking through text and inconsequential choices. Reviewers often call it very short and note that the pacing falls apart as the myth transitions become abrupt.
