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

playing feels like wandering through a Renaissance painting where absurdist humor and medieval theology collide in a series of gentle puzzles.

What players say

Players praise the Monty Python-style humor and the use of Renaissance paintings and classical music. It is a very short, stress-free adventure, finished in about 100 minutes. One reviewer found the humor flat and tedious.
