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 snappy 1990s-set point-and-click investigation that feels like a smart, stylized pulp mystery, driven by a sharp protagonist and atmospheric pixel art.

What players say

Players praise the logical puzzles that avoid frustrating moon logic, the gorgeous pixel art, and the strong voice acting. Many find it an improvement over the first game, though the dark themes of suicide and mental health are noted as a warning. Some players find the mystery a bit predictable if they are experienced with the genre.
