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 slow, thoughtful puzzle adventure that feels like exploring a 16th-century workshop full of hidden secrets and mechanical wonders.

What players say

Players praise the beautiful environments and tactile puzzles, but many criticize the teleport-only movement and janky controller interactions. The game is short, around 4-5 hours, and reviews are split on the puzzles: early ones are clever, but later chapters frustrate with unclear solutions and trial-and-error design. The ending is widely considered unsatisfying.
