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 breezy, low-stakes detective adventure where solving a murder on a strange island feels more like an excuse for goofy jokes than genuine tension.

About

A Capcom developed adventure game released exclusively in Japan for the PlayStation. Cursor-selective adventure game. The player takes on the role of a detective transferred from the main police department to investigate a murder on a surrealistic island. The investigation is always accompanied by slapstick jokes. The story progresses by switching between "Investigate" and "Move" modes with the buttons, selecting the object to be investigated with the cursor, and using the items obtained on the object. The difficulty level is low, as at any time by pressing the button, your buddy, Detective Nekonya, will give you hints on how to proceed.
