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 methodical point-and-click adventure with a tense race against assassins, requiring logical puzzle solving across atmospheric historic locations.

What players say

Players split on the puzzles: some call them fair while others say moon logic makes a walkthrough essential. The game has a sound bug that cuts off dialogue, and its resolution and controls feel dated. Many recommend it only to patient adventure fans who enjoyed the first game.
