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.

A quiet, calming experience of tending to a solitary home at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful visuals but agree the game feels barebones. Customization is limited to one map, few objects, and no object scaling. Some report bugs with controls and settings that reset, while others say it runs smoothly.
