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 quiet, solitary point-and-click journey through space, driven by curiosity and a creeping sense of consequence.

What players say

Players praise the art and music but find puzzles obscure and prone to trial-and-error. Glitches, like duplicated items and reappearing planet eyes, frustrate some. The game is clearly inspired by Don't Touch Anything, though players wish for more content beyond a single puzzle.
