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 slow, meditative journey through impossibly beautiful, surreal landscapes, solving gentle puzzles at a contemplative pace.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, relaxing puzzle game that can be finished in about two hours. The Escher-like perspective puzzles are clever but rarely stumping, and many find the experience almost meditative once they adjust. A few mention slow, unskippable level-end animations as a minor frustration.
