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 slow-paced, hands-on simulation of sorting and compacting waste, with a calm, methodical flow and satisfying real-time physics.

What players say

Players say the game quickly runs out of things to do after a few hours, and the developer has not updated it in over a year while releasing paid DLC. Performance problems and bugs are common, and some call it a scam.
