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

Sorting out classical music scores by ear feels like a soothing, gentle puzzle for melody lovers.

What players say

Players say Partitas is a low-stress ear-training puzzle where you fill in missing notes on classical sheet music, but they are split on who it is for. Those with music training find it a decent practice tool, while others say it teaches nothing and can only be solved by brute force. Many point out missing key signatures as an odd omission.
