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 minimalist, text-based game that uses dark humor to explore impossible moral dilemmas, making you feel both amused and unsettled by your own choices.

What players say

Players enjoy the dark humor and moral dilemmas but are split on the preachy tone and the annoying narrator. Many recommend buying it on sale, noting it is short and that the fun can wear off halfway.
