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 layered puzzle game where careful, patient tile-solving becomes more challenging as you dig deeper.

What players say

Players praise the fresh vertical-layer twist on Minesweeper, especially how it eliminates the classic 50/50 guesswork. Many note the polished audiovisual atmosphere, but some find the controls finicky, citing missed rebinding options and accidental clicks on revealed tiles.
