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-paced, story-driven point and click adventure that feels like exploring a detailed, hand-crafted fantasy world through dialogue and puzzles.

What players say

Players praise the story, world building, and hand-drawn art, but they are split on the gameplay: some enjoy the puzzles and depth, while others find the movement slow, the animations stiff, and the game more of a walking simulator with too much reading and large empty areas.
