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 slow-burning, atmospheric adventure with puzzle solving and a dark, supernatural mystery.

What players say

Players praise the atmospheric music, detailed sprite art, and emotional story focusing on the Secret Sealing Club. The puzzles are generally gentle but have one sharp difficulty spike. The single auto-save slot and lack of a dialogue log frustrate some, and players are split on whether the map feels empty or just right.
