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 humorous point-and-click adventure with playful puzzles and a lighthearted fantasy feel.

What players say
Players say this prequel is shorter and uses recycled assets from the first game, making it feel smaller than the main series. The puzzles draw mixed reactions, with some calling them obtuse or convoluted, while others find them clever. A game-crashing bug on Windows 11 can block progress, though disabling Steam overlay may help.
