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 thoughtful, methodical puzzle game where you push and pull blocks through neat grid-based levels at your own pace, aiming for efficient solutions.

What players say

Players praise the puzzle design and how new mechanics like teleporters and paired blocks are introduced at a good pace. The difficulty ramps up nicely around world 3, and the undo button keeps frustration low. Some note that returning to a map after each level instead of advancing automatically is a minor annoyance.
