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 lighthearted point-and-click mystery with time management gameplay and a focus on dialogue and clue gathering.

What players say

Players praise the story and unique art style, but are frustrated by a cliffhanger ending with no sequel in sight. The time management gameplay is considered simple and relaxing, while the mini games are easy but add variety.
