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 say this budget FMV game is a short, goofy experience that doesn't take itself seriously. Opinions split on the quality: some praise the action scenes and parkour stunts, while others call the story and gameplay inconsistent. A few reviewers note it lasts about 45 minutes to an hour with multiple endings.
