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 methodical puzzle game where you build combos with balls to escape a lab, guided by quirky voice memos that add a light tension.

What players say

Players say the game is a short, fun number-go-up experience that lasts 1-2 hours per run, with runs heavily influenced by early luck. Opinions are split on whether the minimal replay value is a problem, some wish for a prestige system, while others appreciate the brevity.
