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 polished, low-stakes marble-shooter where matching chains of colored orbs feels satisfying and hypnotic.

What players say

Players call this a faithful HD version of the classic ball-shooting match-3, praising it for running on Windows 10 and 11 when the original does not. Many find it nostalgic but note levels grow long and difficult toward the end, and several say the $10 price is too high.
