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, whimsical underwater adventure where you take on simple chores like caring for fish and cleaning the ocean at a relaxed pace.

What players say

Players say the game is a cute and simple point-and-click title for preschoolers, but multiple bugs, especially a scanner that vanishes during a fish x-ray minigame, can make it impossible to complete. Opinions split on recommending it even at a deep discount.
