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 casually paced logic puzzle where you methodically piece together noir-tinged murder scenarios with a dry, darkly humorous afterlife twist.

What players say

Players describe it as a sudoku variant with a crime theme, offering procedurally generated puzzles and five difficulty levels. Many enjoy the logic puzzle gameplay but note the story is minimal and feels like filler, while some criticize the lack of pencil marks and repetitive career mode.
