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 piece together fragmented vignettes through simple puzzles, peering into other lives from a window's perspective, uncovering a darkly comic mystery at your own pace.

What players say

Players call it a promising Golden Idol-like with a unique browser search mechanic, but it is very short and still in early access. They are split on the search system: some find it clever, others say it is clunky and forces brute-forcing word combinations.
