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 cat-and-mouse game of sabotage and deduction set on a colorful naval ship.

What players say

Players praise the clever social deduction twist where one player sabotages while the other repairs, but stress it is strictly local or remote play together with no online matchmaking. The game is easy to learn and fun with a friend, though some find it gets old quickly and wish for more content or difficulty options.
