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.

About

If you look up the word Frog, detective, and prequel...well...you'd be reading a book and not playing this unofficial prequel to the Frog Detective games! So put down that book and pick up the gauntlet that has been thrown down at your feet, to solve a mystery like no other. Best played on an actual Game Boy (a pocket would be best!) Download the ROM at the bottom of the page and use an emulator like BGB, Sameboy or MGBA to play!
