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 somber and introspective point-and-click adventure that asks you to navigate a retired officer's fragile emotional and physical state through non-linear dialogue and puzzle solving.

What players say

Players call this a short point-and-click adventure where choices change dialogue and events but some say the overall outcome is fixed. The writing balances drama and humor and players appreciate how quickly it makes them care about the characters.
