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 charmingly funny and moderately challenging point-and-click adventure with retro pixel art and a lighthearted heroic tone.

What players say

Players enjoy the humorous writing and retro pixel art, but warn that the developer added two unobtainable achievements years ago and has since abandoned the game without communication.
