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 silly, low-stakes point-and-click adventure with a lazy, comic protagonist fumbling through Italian political satire.

What players say

Players praise the humor and Italian setting but warn about heavy pixel hunting and obscure puzzles. The game is short, often completed in 3-4 hours, and many recommend waiting for a sale. Reviews are split on the difficulty: some find it challenging and rewarding, others frustrating without a walkthrough.
