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.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy it as a relaxing, casual time-killer with nice illustrations and replay value, while others criticize the poor UI, especially having to enter a scene just to find the menu button, and the short length. The repetitive music and the fact it has little to do with Sherlock Holmes beyond cartoon pictures are also common complaints.
