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 light-hearted and humor-filled point-and-click adventure with a retro feel, offering a lengthy and story-rich puzzle experience.

What players say
Players praise the humor and charming characters, often comparing it to Monkey Island in a fantasy setting. The puzzles are generally easy to medium, though some strategies are obscure. Many note the game runs long, with the final chapters feeling rushed or budget-constrained. A few players wish for a quest log.
