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

Exploring a colorful, reactive 1990s teletext interface, solving puzzles with a sense of mystery and playful discovery.

What players say

Players praise the authentic teletext look and the developer's quick bug fixes, but they often find the puzzles obtuse and unintuitive. The game is very short, completable in an hour or two, and relies on abstract thinking, though hints sometimes spoil solutions or feel unhelpful.
