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 hidden object puzzle game with a dark mystery and an atmospheric, suspenseful feel.

What players say

Players call this a sprawling hidden-object adventure with a huge castle to explore, but movement is slow and many find the controls clunky. Reviewers split on the puzzles, some say they are too difficult and lack hints, others find them simple. Performance issues force frequent restarts, and the story is considered minimal or cliché.
