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 quiet, hands-on crafting loop where you rotate and shape raw stones into sparkling gems by following simple recipes, with a meditative, low-pressure pace.

What players say

Players describe LAPIDARY as a meditative gem-cutting simulator, but many are frustrated by the complete lack of tutorial, instructions, and intuitive UI. The simple, repetitive loop can be relaxing, yet reviews often note that the game has little to do beyond cutting stones and quickly loses its appeal.
