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, thoughtful puzzle game where you push and pull abstract shapes, gradually uncovering a quiet story about inequality and help.

What players say

Players love the way simple geometric rules spiral into brutally hard puzzles, with a mid-game twist that several call mindblowing. The optional hint system is praised for letting players see the ending without frustration, and reviews are unanimous that it is a rewarding challenge for puzzle fans.
