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 short, atmospheric point-and-click adventure that feels like a tense, moody afternoon uncovering a grim mystery in a remote Scottish estate.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and atmosphere, but nearly all wish it were longer. The time management mechanic forces multiple attempts as you optimize actions. There is no autosave, and occasional glitches can force restarts.
