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 cozy, story-driven investigation into a family's miserable day, with a lighthearted and puzzling tone.

What players say
Players compare it to Golden Idol but say it leans harder into logic puzzles than storytelling. The stakes are low and the art is charming, but the story is thin and the difficulty spikes sharply in later cases, sometimes feeling like a chore.
