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 colorful, fast-paced time-management sim where you frantically route passengers and planes to keep chaos from boiling over into tantrums.

What players say

Players mostly recommend this for nostalgia, having played the free flash demo years ago. Several buyers cannot play because the game asks for an activation code that Steam did not provide, blocking the career mode.
