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, introspective point-and-click puzzle game set in a surreal, melancholic city where time feels meaningless and every interaction deepens the mystery.

What players say

Players say this collection of short surreal point-and-click puzzles is a step down from the developer's earlier Bad Dream games. It is very short and has multiple endings, but some find parts frustratingly vague or reliant on pixel hunting, and the lack of any save system is a common irritation.
