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 contemplative, story-rich point-and-click adventure where you explore a family's tangled emotions through the quiet, curious perspective of a housecat.

What players say
Players praise the story and characters, finding the family drama and the cat's unique perspective deeply engaging. The game is on the shorter side and is mostly a linear interactive story, though some find the minigames tedious. Players warn of a sad ending and heavy subject matter, and many note the developers clearly captured real cat behavior.
