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 point-and-click puzzle game with a moody fantasy horror atmosphere, leaning into mystery and story-driven exploration for a casual, family-friendly audience.

What players say

Players are split on this sequel: some find it a clear improvement over the first game, while others call it a downgrade. Many note the puzzles are either too easy or bafflingly obtuse, and several mention the short length and reused assets. The story is seen as ridiculous but entertaining, and complaints about poor face animations and no bonus adventure are common.
