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

This game feels like a calm, meditative session of rotating colorful pieces to dynamic music, with gentle puzzles that encourage relaxation rather than tension.

What players say

Players describe a minimalist logic puzzle where you rotate lines to collect diamonds while avoiding line contact. The game has about 90 minutes of content across 60 levels and is considered small and easy, though some want an undo button and level select.
