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 tense word-guessing game where you race against a menacing drill, with pressure mounting as you try to survive each round.

What players say

Players enjoy the horror-themed twist on Wordle, with a timer adding stress that fits the dentist setting. They praise the humorous dialogue and the puppet's mocking commentary, and find the consumables add strategic depth. It is described as short, cute, and replayable.
