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 methodical, story-driven hidden object search through a ruined lab, uncovering personal history while solving a mystery.

What players say

Players say it is a short hidden object game with moon logic puzzles that force heavy use of the hint system. The inventory grows very large with many items, and the ending is abrupt. Opinion splits on the puzzle design, with some finding it decent and others giving up.
