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.

What players say

Players describe it as a relaxing meditative game where you steer a paper boat through water, but some find the pace too slow and note glitchy collision detection that can send the boat into grass. Reviews split on its appeal: some praise the calming atmosphere, while others warn of short levels and performance issues like over-shiny environments that are hard to see.
