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 minimalist, turn-based card game on a miniature board where every placement and timing feels like a deliberate tactical puzzle.

What players say

Players finish in about an hour and see nearly every card in one run, but many struggle with no tutorial and poorly translated text. The game has neat ideas and a shogi-like feel, yet frequent boss one-shots and a softlock bug hold it back.
