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 cozy yet unsettling detective game where you explore a pixelated house with your cat, solving puzzles while a creeping dread suggests something sinister lurks beneath the surface.

What players say

Players describe this as a short, cute point-and-click mystery with light horror scares. The puzzles are straightforward and there are four endings to find. Reviews note it works perfectly on Steam Deck out of the box, but some wish it were longer and had more sound effects.
