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

You guide a detective through hidden object puzzles and point-and-click clues in a surreal, family-friendly mystery that feels relaxed yet story-driven.

What players say

Players say it is a very easy and short hidden object game, making it good for beginners but not for veterans. The protagonist is widely criticized as gullible and foolish, and several reviewers note the story is incoherent and the killer's motivation is weak. The game lacks bonus content found in other titles from the same publisher.
