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 silly, physics-driven packing sim that starts comfy and quickly slides into unnerving, choice-driven chaos.

What players say

Players are split on this short, physics-based moving sim that turns into a House of Leaves-inspired horror. Some love the clever packing mechanics and eerie atmosphere, but others find the horror underdeveloped, the basement navigation frustrating, and progress-blocking bugs like blank codes or disappearing items too common.
