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 gentle, wandering hidden-object puzzle set in hand-drawn Chinese landscapes, feeling like a calm stroll through myth.

What players say

Players enjoy the hidden object game for its colorful art and many pop culture references alongside mythical beasts from the Shan Hai Jing. The time limit on each level is a point of mild frustration, but most find the game relaxing and educational. It has 12 levels and takes about an hour to finish.
