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.

About

A game of the famous pencil puzzle that fills the numbers according to the rules in the squares that are lined up vertically and horizontally. Since the total value is displayed for each vertical and horizontal column, add the numbers and apply the numbers to the squares. It is a puzzle that requires little calculation and requires attention and reasoning rather than calculation, so even those who try it for the first time can easily play it. All 50 questions are recorded, and it is one that you can play for a long time.
