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 deceptively calm hidden-object journey that slowly tightens around you like a rulebook turned nightmare.

What players say

Players describe a short, artsy point-and-click hidden-object game with a dystopian cat society. They praise the hand-drawn visuals and voice acting, but note the tone shifts between childlike storytelling and dark, existential themes. The roughly one-hour run time and simple hidden-object puzzles are seen as fitting.
