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 slow-paced, satisfying clicker where you tap to mine falling particles and gradually unlock rarer ones.

What players say

Players enjoy the core idle loop and hypnotic visuals, but the game is widely considered unfinished and abandoned by its developer. There are many bugs, especially on Linux where it barely runs, and the progression feels slow without an auto clicker. Players are split on whether the short playtime is worth the low price.
