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 nostalgic point-and-click adventure with dark humor and puzzle-solving, evoking classic 90s titles like Monkey Island.

What players say

Players praise the nostalgic pixel art and genuinely funny writing, but they split on the puzzles, some love the moon logic while others find it unfair and reliant on pixel hunting. The lack of manual saves and a fast, unchangeable text speed frustrate some, and the English translation is rough. It is a short 2-5 hour game with one-screen chapters.
