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 frantic, physics-driven arcade puzzle where quick reflexes and careful platform building are constantly under pressure.

What players say

Players say Phat Stacks is a very short, 8-level puzzle game that feels like a mobile port. The physics are buggy and exploitable, with objects clipping or dropping. Opinion is split on whether it is worth even the low price, with many seeing it only as a cheap card-farming game.
