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 lighthearted and comedic point-and-click adventure with quirky puzzles and a gently tense island mystery.

What players say

Players praise the colorful art style and charm but are sharply divided on the game itself. Many call it a Monkey Island clone that falls short with terrible camera controls, obtuse puzzles, no autosave, and frequent loading screens. A few warn of a false positive virus detection on modern Windows.
