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 slow, meditative drift through evocative landscapes as you collect thoughts and words, feeling the quiet weight of reflection and gentle melancholy.

What players say

Players describe it as a calm, short game similar to Flower but with collecting items to form poems. Some find it relaxing while others note repetitive gameplay after the first few levels and occasional frustrating controls with invisible walls.
