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
You point and click through retro pixel scenes, unravelling a witty paranormal mystery with a dead partner, mixing humour, investigation, and mild horror.

What players say
Players are split on this point and click. Many praise the humor and writing, calling it among the funniest they have played, while others find the dialogue long winded and annoying. The puzzles often rely on moon logic, and the UI is widely called clunky. The game ends on a cliffhanger. Several compare it to Darkside Detective, both favorably and unfavorably.
