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

You control a mischievous ghost sneaking around a house to snuff out candles while avoiding traps and hiding from the owners.

What players say

Players are split. Some enjoy the quirky physics of blowing a ghost through rooms to collect candles, calling it a fun arcade game. Others call it shovelware with awful controls, no saving, and a high price. Most say it can be finished in half an hour to an hour.
