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 gentle, low-stakes nonogram puzzle game with a whimsical magical theme and a leisurely pace.

What players say

Players describe it as a standard nonogram game that is relaxing but punishing: you are only allowed one or two mistakes per puzzle, and there is no way to cancel a misclick, forcing restarts. While some enjoy zoning out with it, others criticize the developer for selling the same game reskinned dozens of times under different titles.
