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 lively, cartoonish local co-op adventure where players work together in chaotic, time-pressured tasks.

What players say

Players say it is a chaotic co-op party game in the mold of Overcooked, but more forgiving and with a story. The controls, especially jumping, feel odd. Some players find the cleaning unsatisfying and the music weak, while long-time fans praise its humor and polish.
