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 say Costume Quest 2 is a charming, lighthearted RPG that's a solid pick for Halloween but best bought on sale. Many prefer the first game's more varied combat timing minigames, finding the sequel's repetitive press-E mechanic monotonous after a while.
