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 lighthearted, hand-drawn Celtic folklore adventure where you swap between three heroes to explore mythic landscapes and solve puzzles.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art and Celtic mythology setting, but opinions split on the controls. Some find the movement laggy and janky, others say it feels fine once you adjust. The final boss is a difficulty spike. Character swapping is a highlight, though the game is often compared to Trine. A few report bugs like an impossible achievement and controller problems.
