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 measured detective adventure that feels like methodically unraveling a supernatural puzzle in a cursed urban setting.

What players say

Players enjoy the anomaly-spotting gameplay, calling it a cute and fun twist on the eight-exit genre, though many note it is very short, around one hour. The adult scenes are animated and well-drawn, but reviews agree the variety is limited and similar. Some say full price is too high and recommend waiting for a sale.
