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

An indie action-adventure that feels energetic and exploratory with a focus on quick movement and discovery.

What players say

Players love the puzzle design and the central mechanic of swapping between robot hosts. The game expects careful observation and thinking, and while some found it frustrating on release, a later checkpoint system improved the experience.
