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 leisurely, story-driven point-and-click mystery with hidden object puzzles and a gentle fantasy atmosphere.

What players say

Players say the hidden object scenes are good but the game is short, roughly three hours with no second chapter. The collectible crows and chess pieces are hard to spot, and the protagonist repeatedly calling for her son gets annoying.
