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 lighthearted puzzle game where you drop and merge falling blocks while managing freshness and triggering events to guide a magical experiment.

What players say

Players enjoy this suika-like puzzle where three independent evolution lines and a freshness mechanic that turns old materials into garbage blocks add strategy. Random helper events and a catgirl who clears trash keep the difficulty approachable. Some note the lack of Chinese text, making item effects hard to guess.
