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 relaxed, card-based mystery where you casually investigate a death by playing solitaire and discussing clues.

What players say

Players like the three solitaire modes and the murder mystery framing, though some find the clue reveals too spaced out to stay engaged with the story. The game is described as casual with no grind and no power-ups to buy.
