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

Feels like a fast-paced, explosion-filled puzzle game where you clear clutter with satisfying blasts, backed by catchy music.

What players say

A sequel that makes blocks harmless and adds chain-explosion mechanics, with players split on whether the story is charmingly weird or just confusing. Many praise the soundtrack as among the best in the genre.
