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.

What players say

Players praise the spooky Halloween atmosphere and returning to the familiar characters and setting of Saxton from The Lost Crown. However, many note the game is very short, and opinions split on the puzzles: some find them enjoyable but not taxing, while others find it nearly impossible to figure out what to do next without accidental progress.
