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 rhythmic puzzle game where you frantically match block shapes to an oncoming grid, with a difficulty that builds tension.

What players say

Players are split: some find it a relaxing puzzle game, while others criticize the broken VR controls and total lack of instructions. The game is free but one player says it is not fun.
