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, whimsical quest through mysterious dungeons, guided by light puzzling and charming companionship.

What players say

Players call it a loving homage to Game Boy Zelda games, especially Link's Awakening and the Oracle titles, with clever puzzle dungeons and a strong soundtrack. They split on the overworld, some find its maze-like corridors and lack of shortcuts tedious while others enjoy the rewarding exploration. It is harder than the classics it riffs on, and takes roughly 20 hours to complete fully.
