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 lighthearted, cartoonish point-and-click adventure brimming with parody and goofy Cold War-era espionage humor.

What players say
Players are divided on this Cold War satire. Some applaud its humor and puzzle design, calling it a charming return to genre classics like Monkey Island. Others find the political commentary shallow or offensive and dislike how often jokes target the protagonist. The art and hint system are praised across both camps.
