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, contemplative adventure through a scenic Nordic fishing community, with light puzzles and a story that unfolds at a calm, reflective pace.

What players say

Players call it a sweet coming-of-age adventure set in Norway, often comparing it to Life is Strange. The story and characters are praised, but many report buggy walking animations and fixed camera angles that make navigation tedious, and it is a short experience at about four hours.
