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 gentle, story-driven exploration of childhood dreams and family love, with a hand-drawn aesthetic and a reflective, whimsical tone.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art and heartfelt autobiographical story about growing up, but are split on the gameplay. Many find the mini-games simple and charming, while others call them repetitive and frustrating with poor controls and unclear guidance. The English AI voice and localization drag down the experience, and the music loops become grating.
