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 gentle, unhurried scavenger hunt through beautifully drawn Egyptian scenes, meant for unwinding in short bursts.

What players say

Players say the game is free but looks AI-generated, with cats copy-pasted onto backgrounds and no hint button. The zoom is locked to the center and movement only works with right-click, which some find frustrating. A few players still enjoyed it as a quick, casual time-waster.
