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 lighthearted, casual point-and-click time-management game with colorful cartoon visuals and a silly mythological space adventure.

What players say

Players say this ninth entry sticks close to the series formula but adds a space setting with portals and alien boosters. Many find it harder and less relaxing than earlier games, and the interactive tutorial and time-trial achievements annoy some. Reviews are split on whether the small changes freshen the experience or just raise the price.
