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.

a breezy but cooperative puzzle adventure that relies on constant talking and trust to navigate its mild mysteries.

What players say

Players are split on the length: some call it a demo at about two hours, others find it a fair price for a short, cheap game. Unlike the series' escape-room roots, this entry has no riddles or major puzzles, relying instead on communication and coordination across three minigame-style levels.
