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 spend your days fishing on a steamboat under a menacing boss, constantly balancing fishing, steering, and repairs as a creeping unease settles in with the night.

What players say

Players love the fast-paced fishing loop and 1920s cartoon art, but nearly everyone finishes in 1-2 hours, making some feel the $10 price is steep. A few reviewers hit bugs that freeze progress, though workarounds sometimes exist.
