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 surreal and tense narrative experience where you navigate dystopian daily life through puzzles and choices.

What players say

Players describe a very short, free puzzle game with a unique collage art style and a dystopian office satire about faking smiles. It is more of a visual experience than a challenging game, and some find the commentary on capitalist work culture clever while others find it boring.
