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 slow, methodical point-and-click exploration of a derelict ship, uncovering a tragic story through hidden-object puzzles with a ghostly guide.

What players say

The hidden-object scenes are often frustrating, with objects blended into shadows or barely visible, mislabeled items, and clicks that do not register. Some players also complain that sparkles highlight every item, removing the challenge. The game is mostly hidden-object scenes with very few puzzles and a short, abrupt story.
