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 point-and-click mystery where you methodically examine 1920s hotspots and combine clues to unravel a murder investigation at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the logical deduction and clue combining, which require genuine thinking unlike streamlined adventure games. The game is set across three interlinked cases in 1920s England. Some report a game-breaking bug that halts progress, and there is no auto-save, only manual saves.
