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 gentle, curiosity-driven point-and-click adventure with hand-drawn art and a lighthearted, story-rich tone.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art, voice acting, and logical puzzles, calling it a clear labor of love from a solo developer. The story of a 12-year-old boy caught in a mystery pulls players in, though some find the first chapter short at 4-5 hours. Complaints center on the deliberately hidden main menu, occasional bugs, and slow unskippable animations that force restarts.
