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 gentle, whimsical hunt through hand-drawn scenes that feels like a calm fairytale puzzle for all ages.

What players say

Players find the gnomes are barely hidden at all, making it extremely easy to finish in about a minute. The scrolling interface is praised, but the lack of challenge is a near-universal criticism.
