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 calm, methodical puzzle game where you slowly reveal pixel art by logically deducing which cells to color.

What players say

Players compare it to Picross with a math twist where each color has a number value. The 200 handcrafted puzzles and a random level generator provide plenty of content, but some note that a few puzzles have multiple solutions, which can break the revealed image. A free game with a polished core loop, though it lacks a dedicated tutorial menu.
