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, thoughtful puzzle experience set in a stately manor where you uncover clues methodically and interrogate suspects.

What players say
Players are split. Fans of Clue/Cluedo enjoy the detective theme and humor, but others say the game relies too heavily on forced 50/50 guesses, making expert mode frustrating and the mystery elements repetitive after a few runs.
