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 breezy, silly point-and-click adventure filled with goofy jokes and wholesome charm, like a playful cartoon mystery.

What players say

Players praise the silly, laugh-out-loud humor and memorable characters, comparing it fondly to Humongous Entertainment classics like Spy Fox. It's very short (around two hours) with easy puzzles, though many note slow movement and occasional camera bugs that can cause softlocks or require restarting a case.
