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 somber, first-person point-and-click puzzle game where you explore a Gothic bed and breakfast, unraveling family secrets through historical mystery and drama.

What players say

Players call it a cozy, old-school point-and-click mystery with a spooky atmosphere and straightforward puzzles. They note the navigation can be clunky, the voice acting is inconsistent, and the piano puzzle is a notorious sticking point. A few wish for a hint system, and most finish it in around four to six hours.
