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 playfully dark point-and-click adventure that drops you into a colorful cartoon world full of offbeat puzzles and absurd, sometimes twisted humor.

What players say

Players praise the fusion of FMV with hand-drawn animation and the voice cast, especially Christopher Lloyd and Tim Curry. Many note the puzzles can be tricky and sometimes require a guide. Players often mention the game's dark humor and risqué scenes, and regret that a sequel never happened.
