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 point-and-click journey through pixelated post-apocalyptic settings, where choices slowly unravel a memory-shrouded mystery.

What players say

Players describe a point-and-click adventure with a bleak dystopian setting reminiscent of Snowpiercer, where you climb a stratified ship. They praise the pixel art and atmosphere but find quests repetitive, walking painfully slow, and the lack of cutscene or dialogue skips in a game that demands multiple playthroughs frustrating. Performance issues and a few bugs also come up.
