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 casual mystery adventure focusing on evidence gathering and suspect interviews with a TV show tie-in feel.

What players say
Players say the game is a love letter to the Castle TV series, with fans enjoying the in-jokes and faithful recreation of sets. The hidden object and puzzle gameplay is solid but generic, with some puzzles being fiendishly difficult and others poorly explained. The story is engaging for fans, but the lack of voice acting and short length are common complaints.
