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 cute but deceptively tricky voxel puzzle game where you coordinate multiple past and future lives to overcome obstacles.

What players say

Players enjoy this short voxel puzzle game where a cat must die to leave ghosts that help solve puzzles. The difficulty ramps up sharply, and some note a glitch in world 2 that was eventually fixed.
