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 cryptic minimalist RPG with automatic battles and a surreal, nostalgic atmosphere as you explore a pixelated world of puzzles and mystery.

What players say

A short, cryptic RPG where players explore a mysterious digital world, inspired by Game Boy aesthetics. The combat is automatic but expects you to mash a button to deal more damage, which gets old for some. Players are split on whether the puzzles feel rewarding or monotonous, and the world building is intriguing but not very deep.
