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 relaxed but cynical clicker game where you mindlessly watch numbers grow while the industry burns around you.

What players say

Players describe a short idle game that satirizes gaming industry practices like microtransactions and blind boxes. It takes about 3-4 hours to complete and includes a developer-added warning about refund timing. The art and settings are minimal, and the game ends by shutting down without fanfare.
