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 playful, hand-drawn cartoon adventure filled with absurd humor and surreal puzzles.

What players say

Players praise the expressive hand-drawn animation and surreal charm, comparing it to classic cartoons and Amanita Design games. Many note it is very short, around 1–3 hours, and recommend buying on sale. The puzzles are creative but sometimes unintuitive or frustrating, though the hint system helps.
