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 classic point-and-click adventure with charmingly inept characters solving puzzles in a hand-drawn Norse world.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art, writing, and humor but are split on the puzzles: many find them satisfyingly simple, others call them obscure and frustrating. The game is only part one of a series, and several reviewers are upset that part two has not arrived as of 2018.
