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

You manage an MMO studio from a retro desktop, slowly growing your playerbase through incremental upgrades and strategic reinvestment.

What players say

Players appreciate the retro Windows 98 aesthetic and nostalgic feel, but many say the game is shallow and runs out of content within 7-10 hours. A game-breaking save bug is reported, and the solitaire minigame is widely disliked. Players split on whether it works well as an incremental, and several ask for workshop support.
