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

You mindlessly shoot and collect squares in a loop with upgrades.

What players say

Players unanimously say it is very short, around one hour. They split on value: some find it a relaxing, well-made time-killer with satisfying upgrades, while others call it bland and not worth more than a dollar. Several note it feels less polished than the developer's other games.
