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 low-stress island adventure where you unwind from office life, recover from a shipwreck, and explore a gentle, mysterious setting.

What players say

Players say the game ends abruptly after a few hours, feeling like a prologue or part one of a larger story. The steam page promises multiple endings but there is only one, and the exploration and shops introduced never get used. Sentiment is split: some enjoy the art and characters, while many are frustrated by the unfinished plot and lack of gameplay.
