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

Wandering through a gently unfolding hand-drawn world, setting your own pace and goals in a serene fairytale adventure without urgent quests or direction.

What players say

Players call this an abandoned Early Access title that never delivered promised content. The multiplayer was cut and the game became offline-only, which some call dishonest given the original price. Those who enjoy it find a slow, chill exploration game with beautiful art and music.
