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

You methodically examine crime scenes, photographing every clue to piece together the truth.

What players say

Players are sharply divided on this detective game. Some find it an addicting walking sim with good cases, while many more call it buggy, poorly written, and boring. The camera has 2000 refills you must manually reload, and getting a puzzle wrong kills your character, which players call nonsensical.
