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.

What players say

Players like the humor and the branching choices, but the game is very short, most finish in under two hours. A common complaint is that some events feel random and cruel, and a few achievements require obscure or luck-based actions. Some note that the second game is a bigger experience. There are mixed reports on translation quality.
