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-paced, atmospheric hidden-object adventure with a mildly mysterious and story-driven feel.

What players say

Players celebrate the return of original developer Blue Tea Games after a string of disappointing Eipix entries, praising the writing, soundtrack and tragic story. However, many note the lack of map teleportation, repetitive puzzles and an overlong runtime.
